Last year, a number of higher-ed folks got together at the Wireless LAN 
Professional Conference for dinner and a productive story-swap. If you're 
going this year (highly recommend!) and want to do the same, let me know and 
we'll see if we can't put something together.

Hope to see you there!

 Hello, 
  
 We recently upgraded to firmware 09.15.04.001.  We have had many issues with 
 users staying connected, but not being able to forward traffic.  Especially 
 after doing something like a speed test.
  
 During a period of high utilization such as a speedteset, the client will 
 appear to loose connectivity to the Internet (can't ping out), but I can 
 continue to ping internally but nothing else. 
  
 The only way to fix this is to disconnect and reconnect.
