For what I paid, I was seriously expecting an industrial-strength access point with a solid range. I have used other 3Com access points such as the 8250 in larger environments with desired results, but this one doesn't measure up AT ALL. I mounted it centrally about 7 feet up a wall, tried different antennas, different physical locations, different software settings, firmware upgrades, etc, but my cheap crappy netgear consumer wireless router gets better range, and from farther away will generate a better signal than this 3Com. Sorely disappointed.
