Hey,
I was just told by the Hotel that inhabits 1/2 of one of my buildings
here that their guests with Macs can't connect to the free wireless.
They have been running into a brick wall with Time Warner Cable, and
their guests are angry... Apparently this has been going on for a
while. Even though we own the building, we aren't supposed to touch
time warner's stuff. I can tell you that the router is unbranded, and
the WAPs are b/g D-Links, Windows users don't have a problem.
Any ideas?
I've known some ISP's to use some weird proprietary software. I had a
friend recently who left AT&T when his working Xubuntu setup d ied after
a software upgrade at AT&T. He tried everything and then they told him
he'd have to use windows because their new software didn't support
linux. He got a new ISP instead. I'd suggest you inform whoever is
supposed to be handling the system to fix it or you'll get a new provider.
