Yes, I will have to learn a bit about that. It has an option to hide SSID so "the scanning tool can't read the SSID when sniffing radio", and to control access by MAC address. With those I'm not sure what need there is for WEP encryption, since I could care less if someone wants to eavesdrop on my packets. But I'll encrypt anyway since it seems to be what is done. -- William T Goodall [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wtgab.demon.co.uk/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
