Booya's BWSC23 PCMCIA card was one of the few pieces of hardware we tested that offered an amazing level of interoperability with other manufacturers' access points and PCMICA cards (for ad hoc networking). Set-up was so easy in fact, that it quickly became the default card for testing other 802.11b-compliant hardware.
The BWSC23 proved to be a robust performer regardless of which access points, PCI cards, or USB adaptors we tested it with.
This was no more apparent than at our 'bad' reception point where it held a consistent signal, and maintained decent data throughputs. This indicates that the BWSC23 has a strong and solid antenna, even though it didn't look like more than a stub.
Paired with the Booya BWMR15 access point, the card was solid in all of the tests, making them a reliable couple if you need to kick start a network in the office. Oddly, the BWSC23 did better under good conditions with the Booya USB adaptor and Linksys's WAP11 access point.
