Nope, these will be connected to a normal LAN as well, which has the rest
of the machines on the network. The one Mac will have an Airport card, and
the PC laptops are all getting Lucent/Orinoco/Wavelan Silver cards. I'm
just worried about the access point at this time. Should I go with the
RG-1000 for $350, or should I go for the $650 AccessPOint II and put an
external antenna on it?
