[MLB-WIRELESS] Wireless press.

[Paul van den Bergen]

Hi Tony, all,

It is possible I have the wrong end of the stick wrt old versus new 
802.11 compatability... Like I said, I have to try it and I can't do 
that without the MB fixed and the cables and antennae and some time... 
You know...

also wrt frequency, I was going from memory... I'll have a look tonight 
and ... er make that tommorow... or something... and I'll confirm the 
details...
