- Worked with two friends using the same radio equipment and cable from Windows laptops. All were at my house using mag mount antennas.
- Unable to get a successful file transfer using the multi-send / multi receive. Would start sending and then, when polled, one of the stations would request retransmissions of some packets.

- Did have success sending small files between two machines and with text chat.
