I was planning on replacing our Cisco SPA962s with snom 870s. Could you please tell me why they are diabolical? Thanks.

The Snom 870 will do it with a USB Wifi dongle, but in my experience don't go there, they are a diabolical handset from a usability standpoint.

Oopppssss, my apologies - I thought it might be a common query for folks 
thinking about FS - but maybe in another "list"?

I did NOT - and I've deployed a lot of them to support "PC"s! THANK YOU!

EXCELLENT suggestion!

(Maybe I'm drifting even more O-T, but... I'm also glad you did not 
mention WiFi devices from Linksys - in my experience, some of these 
boxes performed very poorly, but I seem to be the only one on the planet 
with these experiences!).

Yes, I think all APs are currently running on WPA2.

Thank you VERY much, Victor!
