I have a mn-700 working as a WAP, a Linksys befsr41 router, a netgear wg511
pcimia adapter and four different computers with wired connections with four
different NIC cards (el cheapo network everywhere, a couple of integrated
and a very nice but old Nic I pulled from a crapped out server. I repair
computers from my house and regularly connect many different computers for
testing/updating.
Computers run win95, win98, win 2000, winxp and a linux box I sometimes use
as a file server.
Never had a disconnect, other than the well known 802.11x authentication
issue (once the first day I had it).
Of course, I am not using the routing function so perhaps therein lies the
problem?
Not sure if I'm lucky or not, but I am pretty pleased with this device,
which has great range (in my house, anyway), and a strong signal.
