In my work, I could use a open network. How can I know if a AP is "compliant/certified" ? I'm such a newbie. I read in the manual of the AP: The DWL-2100AP is also interoperable with other 802.11g and 802.11b standards-compliant devices. > > I had a look at the paper, and the original poster seems to have > exaggerated the paper's claims.

My objetive in my current job is just that, reduce the time of authentication. Someone has a better idea or solution to reduce the association time? I need to use DHCP and could be a open network. > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at ?http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >
