Anybody have one of these cards?

I'm trying to see if it will dump regular files across wifi to a FTP server. I'm trying to figure out how to transmit live underwater video using a vixia camcorder and waterproof case that I already have for a cheap as possible.

Water will attenuate the signal something fierce. Assume that distances through water are equivalent to ~1000 times that distance through air.

not a problem. I'm worried about the process and getting the data out without building a plexi enclosure for our signal converters. I happen to have a ddwrt router and a 30dBi yagi not in use. And it would be like 6" of water. Range shouldnt be a problem.

well that sucks then. Why are they bothering to put wifi-N modules in them if they're slow

the wifi isn't the slow part, it's the sd interface. write speeds are consistently poor with whatever they're using.
