I have a laptop running F11 and I have been having strange problems with
wireless.
At home I have a wireless network setup using WPA authentication and I can
connect to it without problems. Yesterday I was at the airport which has a
free public access wireless. I turned off wpa_supplicant,

I'm not running Network Manager. I had various issues with NM so I disabled
it. As I said nothing has changed in my configuration from when it worked
to it now failing except for installing F11 updates. Also wireless works at
home with my config, but doesn't work anywhere else.

Hi All;
I've setup untangle as a firewall - it works great. It's setup with 192.168.2.1
as the 'gateway' or the begining I.P. range for the DHCP server. So, if I go
to 192.168.2.1 I get the untangle admin panel
I also want a wireless access point. I'm currently using a netgear VPN

Weird.
Does your AP have a IPv6 DHCP server? There's still a lot of devices
that are only IPv4.
Anyway, now I'm really wondering, why the hell are there so many F8
rpms still

My wireless router doesn't but my primary router does. I don't really
need an IPv6 DHCP server, so why do you ask?

Yes.
Okay, that being the case, what app does Fedora use get an IP from a
dhcp server?
dhclient to get an IPv4 address from a server.
