Cisco Aironet 350
Mark: Average
Neil Waldhauer:
Not GenMAC, but Cisco 350 card works very well. 802.11b still works
pretty much everywhere, here. I was using on my T30 until I sold it.
Philip:
Cisco 350 is not Cardbus - it's a 16-bit PCMCIA card.
It's relatively low speed won't show browsing the Internet, but when
copying files over a WLAN it is fairly conspicuous.
One 802.11b in an otherwise 802.11g wifi LAN will slow down the entire
WLAN to 801.11b speed.
Otherwise, the Cisco 350 works quite well. I still got one lying around
somewhere in a drawer.
Only thing is, as far as security goes the (still beta) OS/2 driver only
supports WEP-64 & WEP-128, not WPA (I think under Windows & Linux it can
do more).
Neil:
The Cisco 350 will not support any encryption using xwlan. You can
hack WEP-64, but not WEP-128.
The Cisco 350 works brilliantly at public hot-spots, none of which
have encryption anyway.
I don't care it GenMac gets cardbus support, but I'd like to see
another release with some of the more modern chipsets. System makers
have several common network chips that aren't in GenMac yet, and
probably could be.
