Im heading off to college in a few weeks and Ive already arranged to
have DSL installed into my dorm room.  Being as that its a small campus,
I would also like to set up an access point either in my room or on the
roof of the dorm so that I can roam around with my laptop a little bit.

I already own a 8dBi-omni and Im looking for a decent AP that has an
external antenna connector.  

Im faily new to wireless stuff so any recommendations on
hardware/hardware positioning/etc would be welcome.  Try and remember
this is a college student budget =)

Thanks,
Jay
