Right, but it is the best card you can get on earth!

I have a professionel Wave-LAN System "Proxim Tsuname MP.11a" in
Marrakech/Moroco plus Strasbnourg/France and it works like the heaven...

It works in a Distance of more then 3 km with 54MBit without switching
back to lower speeds.

Have payed 7800 US$ for the AP (Software: Outdoor Router and NOT as
Residential Gateway which is without traffic shaping/accounting).
