that's too bad. it's odd, though, that the manual and software mention
802.11 numerous times and the card uses a mac address. it looks so much
like it wants to work, it's rather disappointing to learn there is no
upgrade chip or switch to flip it over to 2.4 from 915.

That would have required supernatural foresight from the designers.... :-)
