Could you please clear up a small confusion...

I am getting conflicting advice about the Wireless LAN module (the one with the antenna).

Some dealers are claiming "discontinued", whilst others are quoting 4 weeks delivery.

Is this module dicontinued officially. ??

Thanks

My understanding it's "discontinued" and even if it wasn't I don't think I would go that route. You're much better off handling the wireless aspect of your ProfiLux using an alternate method. At least that's my suggestion.

Yep discontinued for over a year now.

For Pus II owners you can get the LAN card of course that is hard wired to the router, or P3 users can run a wirless bridge off of the ethernet port.

Thanks BigAl...

All seems very simple. My home PC system is already Wireless and I have wireless connectivity from Modem/Router to Ipod, Ipad and Cell phone...plus a second computer and my Lap-Top. So I guess all I need is the Bridge and good to go !!

Yes sir. Here's how I suggest you go about it:


A) Connect your ProfiLux to your router hard-wired to confirm connectivity. This way if you have a problem when connected wirelessly you have one less set of possible problems to deal with because you've already confirmed wired connectivity.

B) Set-up and configure "Bridge" to communicate with your wireless network

C) plug ProfiLux3 into "Bridge" and connect to it wirelessly
