I don't think that BOTH means 'with or without wep' instead I think it refers to the two forms of WEP key management, IE. Shared or Open.

If the AP Authentication scheme is set to open on the Client Auth tab of SimpleMonitor, then any CPE will be able to associate. On the advanced tab of SimpleMonitor, I would still set the Auth Type to both. That way CPEs with WEP keys set could associate but the traffic would not be encrypted. This would be the preferred setting for a hotspot. Let the MikroTik or whatever handle the authentication on the back side. Kevin B.

Are you saying that if the former is "Open" and the CPE MAC is NOT in the Client Auth table, that the CPE will be able to associate and route? Rk At 10:25 AM 10/13/2003, you wrote: >Yes.
