I need a wireless access point (WAP) to connect to a router for a
laptop that according to the specs supports: Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN,
Broadcom 802.11a/b/g WLAN, Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG 802.11 a/b/g
WLAN, Intel PRO/Wireless 3945BG 802.11 b/g WLAN. Key requirements are
stability, speed and security for a real-time internet application
which requires high bandwidth for up to 3 users. The other users

I am leaning toward D-Link DWL7200AP. Any suggestions? Thanks in
advance.

I am told by the salesman that it will be Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
802.11 a/b/g. I want to use 802.11a because there will be less
interference but some users will have 802.11g in this transient office
so access point must support both.

Thanks. I just need a access point to connect to the existing wired
network. Also I need 80211a support which this doesn't seem to have.
