Looking for waterproof wifi access point

do you know some ?

Take a look at D-Link's web site. I'm sure others make them. They are
expensive, but depends on how much you have to spend. There are some
homebrew projects on the net also. Do a google search.

Later

There is a wide range of industrial materials that may work. One
I can think of is a thick, rubberized liquid (red, opaque) used
to insulate handles on hand tools. Once dry, it is flexible and
tough. As for UV protection, don't know. But I've seen ham radio
equipment put in a container and painted with this material that
stayed outside for years without problems. Buy it in a can,
probably at Home Depot or similar.

Craig mentions that you don't want it completely watertight, otherwise
condensation inside or overheating might be a bad thing. A drain hole
and the operating heat of the equipment work to keep the inside toasty
and dry.

With a 1mm or so screen over it.
You do not want stuff nesting in it.

Just saw a blurb yesterday for a new Buffalo AirStation model. Gets
its power through the Ethernet connection. MSRP was almost a thousand
bucks, though.

You've got to be kidding! $125.00?
The suggested ABS enclosure was probably $10.
