Does anyon know the max range for an unliscensed 2.4Ghz wireless network? The net info is daunting and difficult to sift through. I got everything from 100 ft with no gain antenna to 20 miles with 2 high gain yagi antennas. If someone could clear this up it would be appreciated.

Actually range depends on numerous factors,
Quality of devices used in wireless network( There is a LOT of cheap junk out there), Electronic "Noise" or interferance (ie 2.4 ghz cordless phones), RF opaq objects in signal pathway and position of antennas to each other.
Other factors exist also. I'll try and locate some reading links later...

I have a Network Security Question that you might be able to answer or direct me to the person(s) that can help me.

During the spring quarter 2004 I took the Advanced Network Security class at Northwestern University. And I worked on a security project that has gained the interest of the CBS 2 Chicago investigative unit. The project is entitled "Often Over Looked Mission Critical
Details Related to Large Scale Wireless Deployment Initiatives".

By pure accident I compromised a large City of Chicago institution over the 2003-2004 Christmas break. Knowing that I was going to take Advance Network Security during the spring 2004 quarter, I did not tell anyone what I was up to until February 2004. During my research for this project I have compromised other large Chicagoland institutions. The information that I have obtained will leave you thinking that this cant be true and will have the steam rising out Mayor Daley's ears. I will explain what City institutions I am talking about later when you return my E-mail.

For now, I would just like to know if anyone out there has penetrated the following networks and obtained any confidential data or left back doors to the following networks. Chicago Public Schools, City of Chicago, Chicago Police or Cook County.

I can send you a copy of the project if that will help.
