[email protected]. Introduction After a long hiatus, I've started working on updating these pages again. Currently I'm concentrating on checking the vendor info and URLs, and then I'll get more into the product data and other stuff. I've dropped the color coding to highlight changes, as it was too much of a headache to maintain. Instead, I'm keeping a in which I'll record the changes as I make them. This is a survey of currently available wireless RF modem products suitable for wireless LAN and MAN applications. At the moment, this survey includes only those products which are suitable for unlicenced operation in the ISM bands: 900 MHz (902-928 MHz), 2.4 GHz (2400-2483.5 MHz) and 5.8 GHz (5725-5850 MHz). Some of these products are intended for very short range wireless applications, while others are designed to be used as longer-haul point-to-point wireless bridges, and some can be used in either role. No attempt has been made to differentiate between these usages in this survey. Also, I don't necessarily list every product in each vendor's wireless product line. Some product lines have many different variants, and the tables would get too unwieldy if I tried to list them all, but I try to include some representative products from each manufacturer. I tend to omit the "access point" products, and products in which the WLAN modem is integrated into something else, such as a portable computer.
