Hello, I'm looking for 802.11 adapter for a single board computer to make it attachable to wireless network. The adapter has to connect withs SBC through Ethernet connection. I have been using Linksys WAP11 before but they had proved to be unreliable and a special guy had to go and occasionally reboot them through switching power off/on.. I tried to migrate to Netgear but it seems not to have any adapters except that with USB and PCI. Netgearr access points cannot work as clients. Google steers to the same "Linksys", "Belkin" etc Can you advice something reliable and industrial? Thanks, Alex.

It was a CB1000 from Symbol. http://www.symbol.com/products/wireless/cb1000.html Not very cheap, though :-( Works quite neatly, and the SBC only needs a standard LAN interface.
