Are they on the Internet? 3) What is the street price for grapes modem and transverter unit for 220mhz (440mhz)? 4) I already have both an amiga and a xenix 386 box. What kind of performance can I really expect to get. Are we talking relatively error-free 56kb transmissions or is my transmitter receiver going to be coming down all the time. I guess what I'm trying to say is, "How much is this going to cost me and once I get it setup is it going to be a nightmare to keep on the air?"

I am looking for address/telephone details for a company who supplies a LAWN interface unit (local-area wireless network) that connects to the serial port of a PC. The name of the company is: O'Neill Communications (Princeton, NJ). An article in June 1990 Byte on wireless LANs mentioned this company but gave no further details on their whereabouts. Thanks for any help. John (VK3DWT). (Sorry for the cross-posting) :-) O'Neill Communications 100 Thanet Circle Princeton, NJ 08540 (609) 924-1095 I'm not affiliated with O'Neill, I'm just tracking developments in wireless LANs. This is by no means the only one. If you're looking for a wireless ethernet-like network, I'm afraid this one will disappoint you. The information I have indicates the software included provides support for file transfer and email. No mention is made of file sharing or a Novell driver. See also: LAN Magazine, September '90, pg 100 (LAWN and others) LAN Times, October 22, '90, pg 23 (NCR WaveLan and others) LAN Magazine, November, '90, pg 20 (Motorola's 18GHz ethernet "repeaters") I'd like to take this opportunity to solicit leads on other wireless LAN technologies. I'm interested in all kinds, but especially general purpose "802.x-like" technologies. --- Scott Peterson scottp@eecs.cs.pdx.edu (a.k.a. {tektronix|verdix}!radix!sdp - RadiSys Corp.) ------------------------------ End of Packet-Radio Digest ******************************
