I dunno about any links, but I can answer 802.11b questions for you.
Ad-hoc mode means that the cards will associate with each other and
don't need an access point. One way to use this would be to have a
Linux-based laptop or desktop with a radio card in ad-hoc mode. All you
do then is set up bridging between the it's radio card and NIC and you
have an access point. Ok, it wouldn't be a full-fledged access point,
but it would be as much of one as you would likely need.
Is Symbol finally getting around to shipping that radio? What price are
they quoting now? If you don't want to wait, you might order the D-Link
one. It's a bit larger, but it identifies itself as a Prism 2 chipset.
I haven't compiled and installed that module yet, but it should work.
