All the profiles. I have a separate profile for my townhouse in Leesburg 
(different SSID; no WEP). I can switch between them without any problem. 
That said, the selection does not survive a reboot, meaning I have to 
reselect a profile other than the first one after a restart, which is a 
bit of a nuisance, but not a real problem.

Yes, WEP seems to work when run against later LinkSys 
(post-Cisco-buyout) hardware. The AP I'm using in Leesburg is an older 
LinkSys WAP11, and it does not work.

I'm finishing up some fighting with my sendmail configuraiton on my mail 
server (luckily, this list runs through InetMail; I use sendmail for PHP 
apps). As soon as that's done, I'll reboot to <gulp> Wintendo and check 
my firmware rev. I must apologize; you asked me for this back in April, 
and I let it slip.

My condolences... ;-)
