My old Lucent Wavepoint-II had this range, but it didn't have the
throughput to fill the 802.11(b) airwaves.  I've since "upgraded" to a
Linksys WAP55AG and I now get a solid 6mbps transfer over the
802.11(b) network (which is close enough to the actual maximum to make
me happy) but as you mentioned the range is piss-poor, and debugging
tools are non-existant.
