Gee, another topic I have some bit of expertise in. I come from the
cellular and mobile electronics industry, my old company is a
wholesale distributor and resell of a range of these products. See
archives for previous writings. We sold and installed a wide variety
of both wired and wireless systems. In the consumer/small business
arena, Wilson and Digital Antenna (DA), with the vast preponderance
of sales in the latter.

I use two phones plus an aircard on AT&T. I have already installed the 
Wilson marine antenna and am interested in how to best complete a system for 
the boat.
I'm looking at the Links Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband part number 
WRT54G3G-AT:

and the Wilson 801201 wireless amplifier:

I believe these would work together if I put the aircard in the Linskys and 
the outside antenna on the amp, use the "stealth" antenna with the amp as 
provided by Wilson. So both units and the phones would work wirelessly.  Am 
I missing something? Is there something about the wireless that doesn't work 
well on a boat? It seems simple enough but I don't want to put out a lot of 
money to "test" a system that is known to have problems.
