[BBLISA] Might need help debugging a new wireless set-up

I'm putting together a new wireless set-up (to meet security
requirements for my new job), and I have a feeling I'm going to need
some help getting it to work: I'm using an untested Compact Flash
802.11b card in a proprietary H/W VPN box, there's no way to load
drivers, and no way to get at the O/S to see what's happening.

    Before anyone goes off on a rant about open source:
    The VPN box runs Linux, but you can't get to it. In
    a security device this is A Good Thing.

To make the job more difficult, I don't have wireless at home, and the
company I work for is located in New Jersey. Oh, and did I mention I
have just over one week to get this working?

So, is there anyone out there that:

    1. has the ability to sniff both wired and wireless packets;

    2. has a network where we can test all this;

    3. has the time to help me?

If so, please contact me. My schedule is pretty flexible and I'll buy
lunch or beer, your choice. Day (preferred) or evening, your home or
office.

Thanks,
AdamM
