According to Guy Kewney at newswireless.net<\/a>, Nokia’s newest addition to the WLAN access point market has a flaw. It supports Power over Ethernet, a feature that is meant to be cost-reducing, because it measn less cabling. Unfortunately there is no standard as to which wires should be used for which polarity, meaning a high risk that incompatible equipment means fried equipment, not exactly prize-reducing.<\/p>\n
