Hotspots beyond the cable's reach

WiFi hotspots are great boons to mobile computing, but they tend to extend only as far as the cables to an ISP can stretch. D-Link has introduced a product aimed at extending that reach to the limits of the data-capable cellular network. The DIR-450 (and related DR-451) accept an Edge card to bring an Internet connection to the router and a WiFi hotspot to remote locations where a standard ISP connection isn't economical (or even possible). If your business includes short-term remote sites or highly mobile teams, this could be the sort of hotspot that answers significant questions.
