Goat,

This is what I was looking for.  When you bought your 4521 from SoeKris did you order it with the case or is that your 
own case?

Thanks Jeff

There is a DIY solution:

NET4501 from www.soekris.com

Mini-PCI 802.11b cards, antennas and pigtails from www.netgate.com

Not exactly what you need in funished form, but I asked myself the same question a while back and came up blank.  
Building one myself turned out to be the only viable option.

With a 20 amp-hour battery, my drop box runs for ~2.5 days.  I use a variant of my box as a passive 802.11 sniffer 
using a battery-powered soekris NET4521, a 5GB pccard HD and a senao wireless card.  It all fits in a waterproof 
electrical enclosure which can be strapped to a utility pole:

Hey People,
 
Just wondering if anyone is aware of a mini 802.11b access point that can be plugged inline with a network device 
such a printer.  I am conducting a pen test and would like to use this device in my social engineering attack.
 
 
Thanks
Jeff
