Azeem,
That's a very good question. I've just upgraded firmware after receiving
your suggestion. Unfortunately I have to wait a few hours before I can test
it at home. I'll share my results on this forum.
Thanks!
Best regards,
Peter

(I hope it won't start off-topic discussions, but experience suggests that
if one keeps quiet they'll think one's rather dumb that a philosopher.
Definitely don't listen to this proverb when applying for a job).

Is there anyone who knows this product ? I'm trying to understand if it
is possible two use this two-radio system as a bridge and access point
at the same time. Looking at the brochure, this product is able two
support 802.11a and 802.11b at the same time, or two 802.11b radios. It
isn't clear if this second option is only for reliability.....
Also, what do you think about antennas splitters ? Are these products
useful ? what are the pros & cons ?

I've had similar problems with the WAP11 v2.2 and an Airport card... and
disabling WEP didn't seem to fix it. I'm starting to entertain dark
suspicions about the v2.2.
(According to the Linksys website: "This Product does not require
Firmware"... not sure what that means, exactly, but it's making me
nervious...)
