I use a Cisco Aironet 340 Model BR342US Wirelss Bridge in Access Point mode
with a number of WAP11 ver 1.4i1 AP clients. This configuration has worked
acceptably for months. I turned off the Cisco proprietary extensions and
enabled RFC1042 encapsulation. If you disable broadcast SSID on the Cisco,
you must set the WAP11 SSID to null.
