	Wap11Hack - Seattle Wireless
		There is an interesting hack where you can load the D-Link firmware onto a WAP-11 ver 2.2 (Wap11Ver22Hack) and get it to go 22Mbps (6Mbps real world) right now, and soon 44Mbps (12Mbps real world) when D-Link releases the new ver 2.4 firmware.
		The highest output power (100mw supposedly) is at hex value 80, and as you change the value (in either direction) from 80, the power output drops linearly (so 7A and 86 are the same power output).
		This is 16 less than the value for 50mW (0xFF or 255), and since we increase TX power as the value is reduced we get: (60*0.4)+50=56.4mW.
