Sorry for the short hand.  LT=Lap top, DT=Desk top.

Every single machine could not talk to the access point, because it was using
MAC address filtering to lock them out.

So it seems the sound indicates it is trying to connect and cannot. Somewhere in the configuration process I got the sound to stop.  By trying to connect where I had no authority the sound started again.

At one point a box opened that said the same address had been assigned to both wired and wireless, and said I must chose one.  That is an improvement over eCS 1.2.  There I had to install wired support and save the files, and then install wireless and save the files, and then select a file set and reboot.

Win uses wired if it is available and if not uses wireless.  So I can unplug the cable and walk outside and it still works.  Is there any reason besides time and/or money that OS/2 could not work that way?
