[SunRescue] need 802.11b wireless access point recommendations

[Ken Hansen]

Polarization - should my two antennas be straight up, or both
horizontal? The PC Cards the Access Point is communicating with
(seem to be) hrozontally polarized?

Any one know?

Just curious really - I've been wondering about this, and the
post below got me thinking of it...

Thanks,

Ken

Locate your access point high up on the wall, or on the ceiling.
Keep in
mind that the antenna needs to be properly oriented (with a
vertical
antenna, if you turn it horizonal, signal strength will
diminish...unless
you turn the other end horizontal too.)
