What I want to know is...

If they are working at a client site, what is the man connecting his laptop to when he flips up the little antenna? It was suggested in our house that they were actually working next door so they could still reach their home network, but that seems too easy to me.

Or am I missing the point altogether and it is all easy and obvious? (wouldn't be the first time :blush: ).

Cool toy if you can afford the data plans.
