I have one and it’s really been fairly good except for the low performance during WPA transfers.
It hasn’t dropped connections for me so it’s hard for me to say.
I have three base stations…yeah, it’s crazy. I have an old school D-Link DWL-1000AP (for 802.11b access), Microsoft MN-700 (for 802.11g access) and Sony PCWA-A500 (for 802.11a access) and they all have their quirks but they all work. I’m planning on retiring the DWL-1000AP and switching the MN-700 to mixed modes to support the other people in my house.
