 ==== AP10 - Access Point ====
 {{:networking:sa10.jpg?200 |}}
+The AP10 is the base station for the wireless network, The front panel LEDs indicate power, and ethernet link, the interference LED illuminates if it detects other FHSS signals, it does not care about DHSS. The Load LEDs indicate the number of devices connected to the AP, rather than the density of traffic being carried.

 ==== WB10 - Wireless Bridge ====
+The WB10 and SA10 are very similar, the main difference it that the WB10 bridge is intended for bridging networks together and can cope with multiple MAC addresses on it's LAN side, whereas the SA10 is intended for a single device and will only forward one MAC address.

 ==== SA10 - Station Adapter ====
 {{:networking:breezecom:sa10.jpg?200 |}}
+As above, very similar to the WB10. Physically the unit is the same, but the firmware is different. I have seen a post on a forum saying that reflashing the SA10 with WB10 firmware will upgrade the the unit without issues. Sadly I have been unable to either find the link again, or a ftp site with Breezecom firmware to upgrade my units to the latest available.
