It looks like the main difference is the RangeBooster feature:

"RangeBooster technology for up to twice the range, reduced dead spots,
and up to 35% more throughput than standard Wireless-G"

It will be neat to see if anyone on the list has experience with this new
technology and to get their feedback.

I have an older Linksys device supporting about 5 users in a small office
network segment I care for and it is doing very well. Remember to test
their apps (especially more legacy type) against wireless in general since
many times you might find the app performs poorly or not at all without
trusty old wires.

Subject:Linksys wireless access point comparison

Hi expert,

Anybody has experience in deployment of Linksys wireless LAN access point
for small company?
With the price consideration, I want to use Linksys AP instead of Cisco
aironet.

What is the exact difference between "WAP200" and "WAP2000"? They looks like
very similar, but the price gap is USD40-50.
