People seem to buy every crappy Woot! they put up, but I really have to scratch my head at why anyone would buy an 802.11b access point for even $15 shipped.

Actually, I thought it's not a bad idea to have a 802.11b on one channel and a 802.11g on a seperate channel to prevent the 802.11g from getting bogged down with slow clients. It's what I used to do at my folks place. My old 802.11b Tablet PC would work fine and wouldn't slow down my folks new budget 802.11g laptop.
For someone with a nice 802.11g setup who needs to support the odd 802.11b it's a great deal.
Well from everyone's description it just sounds like a WAP.
Woot is so slow today though that I can't get into it and confirm it. Wondering if all the 3rd party tracking is responsible (by exposing a performance issue that wouldn't normaly be there).

At least it will probably work better than those refurbed Netgear 802.11g routers that I got last month. The wireless crashes on those on almost a daily basis.

You gotta love it....
