    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:
