        Ok, after watching Windows reboot for 30 minutes, here's what I have
found:

        1) The only way to the ABO is if I'm in the same net block as it is
(that's the reason for all the reboots).

        2) I still have not got the DHCP response back through the ABO.

        3) I stuck an Orinoco silver in my laptop, and got the DHCP response.
Went surfing just fine.

        4) Orinoco cards are not good for sniffing wireless traffic :( (I'm using
Ethereal in Linux) Some recommendations are needed.

        I have turned off encryption, set the ABO to open, no MAC authentication,
basically it's wide open for anyone to connect to, but I'm still not
getting the DHCP response :(
