This sounds like a great AP, and since I'm currently looking into
replacing my wireless card in my m0n0wall box, with an external AP, I
tried to find the model you mention on the Edimax homepage.
Unfortunatly I wasn't able to find a GL2422AP product, nor anything
sounding remotely like it?!?
Do you know if this is because they have discontinued this particular
model, and/or replaced it with some very different products, or am I
simply looking at the wrong Edimax site?!?
Thanks,
Adam. |
