Hi,

any experiences here with Acer Nplify wireless? Is it easy to get set
up and running or something that needs 3 days of trickery and possibly
more.

Acer Laptops look and seem quite nicely specced for my purposes, but
I'ld like to clear this up before I commit. There is not a lot of
information available re. how it's working under linux it seems.

Thanks group,

Barnabyh

I have an Acer 5735-4774 and the sticker says it has Acer Nplify but my
access point, a LinkSys WAP54G, doesn't have Draft-N. Otherwise the
wireless connection works well with the exception of seemingly random
disconnects, and those I believe are primarily a WAP54G problem.

I took a quick look on the Internet and I couldn't find much about whether
Nplify even works under Linux although I've seen several people ask the
same question you've asked.
