Hi *,

whoever uses Intel 2200BG: I am not aware of how many and who of you 
already have that GenMac fix for that card. I expect a public fix 
release soon, then I can go after the problem, having a box in access 
which is having that problem.

Concerning your approach of readding the wiget: this in fact is a way to 
enforce the reconfiguration of the IP interface, working around the 
problem. You could as well do that from outside, by disabling TCP/IP 
configuration via XWLAN and doing that form a script outside. Make sure 
that you kill dhcpcd.exe before issuing a dhcpstrt call, otherwise it 
may just do nothing. Of course this is only a workaround - XWLAN is 
designed to do exactly all that for you, and I will hopefully soon have 
found this bug.

thanx, Christian
