I've got two Debian (Sid) boxes in different parts of the house. Can I
put in a wireless NIC into each one of them, and them talk to each
other, or must I have a Wireless Access Point as an intermediary?
Also, as long as I'm on the subject. Typically I'd buy some name brand
I'm more familiar with, like D-Link or Netgear, but the Siemens box
specifically mentions that Linux is a compatible OS. For that reason,
I'd like to throw my money toward Siemens. Any technical reasons not to?
And one more: why can't I find a PCI wireless NIC, instead of a PCI
wireless NIC adapter plus a wireless PCMCIA NIC? To me, that seems
stupid. (But then, someone mentioned that the Apple wireless Airport
basestation does the same thing; puts a wireless PCMCIA nic in an adapter.)
Thanks (and man! I hope the "inappropriate racist" thread dies soon)!
