It is a cell phone with builtin 802.11b:

The network has a Cisco 800 router providing internet access and dhcp.
There are two wired desktop clients (Debian GNU/Linux) and a FreeBSD
server. The server also has a Netgear (prism2) wireless card providing
a wireless bridge (no other access points around), where two laptops
(win98se and Linux) connect without problems... Addresses are all
10.10.10.0/24, with the dhcp pool giving addresses from 10.10.10.129
up (wired clients have static ip addresses below that).

Cheers,

pep
