I'm an amatuer electronics hacker (a couple of college courses and a
bunch of reading) and I'm interested in fooling around with wireless
networking stuff. I've surfed the web for 802.11 related chips but am
finding my lack of experience a problem: I just don't understand most
of the jargon or acronyms and I'm not too clear on how the different
parts fit into the overall system. I need a good primer on something,
but I don't even know enough to name the subject.

Almost everything I've seen is clearly operating in the
analog/radio-frequency domain, with which I have almost no experience.
I've seen ONE product that appears to provide a CPU bus interface on
one end and antenna connections on the other, everything else lived
somewhere inbetween (closer to the antenna than the CPU bus), so I
need something that covers that subject matter.

Any advice would be appreciated.
