Lewis,
A big thanks for your efforts to date on OS/2 and getting wireless.
Well, thanks, Igor. It's only my little part to play in the scheme of things. :-)
The only thing that springs to mind for inclusion in your FAQ would be a definition/explanation for a hotspot. Yes, this is good to put in. Thanks for reminding me!
Hopefully my southern hemisphere definition is similar to yours as I'd define a hotspot as a public wifi access point usually located in cafes, bars, restaurants, shopping malls, libraries, educational institutes, airport terminals, etc. Access maybe free or chargable depending on the service provider.
Exactly. I couldn't have said it better myself. The follow on to this will be a brief discussion of captive portals for authentication at hotspots, linked to a question concerning why one may not be able to simply boot up and check for mail (because one may need to authenticate to the captive portal via a browser window, first).
