It works stable enough for = home use but sometimes the AP hangs and requires a hard reboot. It uses the LAN-AP profile with ppp.(PAN would be nice :( ) Logging? Yes but only = under Windows and not very detailed. Speed is about 40KB-50KB with an old = BT3030 USB-Dongel (not really fast). Btw it costs 329=80 plus 70=80 for the = Bluetooth module not really a bargain (in fact you do not need ISDN or DSL functionality).=20 The anycom BT-AP is expensive too (730=80 for ANYCOM Blue AP-2001 Anycom = LAN Access Point AlpsChip GR D, (CC3051)). What about using an apple mac mini as base system? Low power consumption = (13 Watts idle), small, quiet, CD/DVD?! Internal BT-module (is it class 1?) (maybe apple build an EDR module one day so you can upgrade or simply = use an USB device) For about 590=80 and if you have some use for the other hardware it = looks interesting. If you build one single board computer it would be nice if you post the components you use and how expensive it goes in the end.

We have had fairly good luck with the AXIS access point, but it is no=20 longer being supported by AXIS. Also, it tends to go brain dead once=20 in a while, and sometimes even requires a hard reboot. The Anycom access point looks decent, but doesn't provide much in terms=20 of logging and debugging of connection problems. Also, there is no=20 way to tell it not to save the link keys. The firmware also has a bug=20 in it where if you tell it to automatically check for new firmware on=20 startup, it becomes a boat anchor and has to be sent back to the=20 manufacturer (This is documented on their website). I have seen a few others out there, but I don't believe that any of them = are Class 1 devices. I would prefer to buy a really good access point, but I am now=20 considering just building my own using BlueZ, and a very small single=20 board computer running a 300MHZ Geode processor. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
