USB EVDO adapter

Paul Westbrook | 07 August, 2006 22:33

Cdu550-2Franklin Wireless has announced that later this month they will release a USB EVDO  adapter.  This will supposedly make it easier to connect to these networks on systems that either don't have PCMCIA slots or don't have the drivers that support these cards.

Hopefully, they will make Mac drivers available, or make this device support a standard USB networking profile.

WDS

Paul Westbrook | 07 August, 2006 22:12

We have continued to have problems with our wireless network.  Our reception was pretty bad in our living room.  It probably didn't help that out Airport Express was behind the metal boxes of electro-magnatism of our A/V equipment.  So my goal was to move the base station somewhere where there wouldn't be interference, but also out of reach of the kids.  Unfortunately, those places weren't near an ethernet drop. 

So I am trying WDS again, with the base station above the kitchen counter.  Hopefully this will improve the signal strength downstairs.
