[MLB-WIRELESS] DLink Hardware Price update

[Matthew Vella]

The DCF-650W is not Type II PCMCIA (the BBF pricelist is wrong :-), it's CF - Compact Flash - useful in WinCE handhelds and the like.  Specs at http://www.dlink.com/products/DigitalHome/Mobile/dcf650w/

The DWL-120 USB adaptor looks to be fairly easy to modify for an external antenna, as well as being easy to locate close to an external antenna, and, apart from having no Linux support (yet), looks like one of the cheapest ways to have an 11Mb link on the outside.  I will be trying to mod one for an external antenna fairly soon - will report back when it's done.

  Hi again,
  If anyone's interested, here's a list of prices for DLink Wireless LAN products as I can get them (inc GST)
   
  DWL-120 USB Adaptor: $320
  DWL-500 PCI Card: $350
  DWL-650 PCMCIA Card: $270
  DWL-905 PCMCIA Starter Kit (2x DWL-650, 1x DWL-1000AP): $950
  DWL-1000AP Access Point(http://www.dlink.com.au/products/wireless/dwl1000ap/ ): $570
  DI-713P Gateway/Switch (http://www.dlink.com.au/products/wireless/di713p/ ): $650 <-- This I like the look of :)
  There's meant to be a new DCF-650W Type II PCMCIA Card as well ($300), but I don't have any specs on that as yet.

  I'm going to be buying in the next month for a home-based network at first, and will then look at an external antenna a little later on down the track.
