No, not another AP of any vendor, unfortunately.  :(

It'll work with any Atmel-based radio.. in AP Client Mode, the WAP11 will
only bridge a single IP.

The Orinoco's with KarlNet upgrades will connect to KarlNet or Cisco
(apparently) AP's, and bridge up to 8 IP's.

Pricing for RG-1000's plus KarlNet:

2x RG-1000				$120
1x KarlNet Ethernet Converter SW	$ 50
1x KarlNet AP Software			$ 75
					----
					$245

Not too bad, considering these AP's retail for $195/ea right now.. :)

But, yeah, still have to stay within your vendor.
