>> We have run wisms for two years with different codes(4.0, 4.1 and

>> We have both web auth wlan and WPA wlan(majority of users are on web

>> Is this the same case for other deployments as well? I hope someone

>> 1. Are your wisms stable and what code do you use?
>> 2. How many users total and how many web auth users do you have per
