Finally got back to this today, after I had the machine with me in a very
nice MD office where I had to wait a while (MJ's appointmnet) and
discovered that they had wifi in the waiting room. It connected right up
when I clicked "hotspot" in XWLAN.
Back home now, I got the same mess; XWLAN turned a muddy kakhi color and
nothing happened. I finally enabled ssid broadcast and it started
working.
I'm not sure I understand why it had previously worked and then stopped
with the SSID broadcast disabled. I've again set it to allow only a
selected list of MAC addresses, and it's still OK.
This is probably my issue at my client with WPA2. I'll try enabling beaconing and check it again (when I'm back up in NY in two weeks). Odd behavior, that's for sure.
