Neil,
While you are certainly correct about 'hot spot' access, there is the
implication in the article that WEP is/should be removed from any APs
that are sold in the future in order to encourage better security.
So, let's say I want to improve the speed of MY network from the
802.11b that I currently have, to 802.11g. I need a new router/AP, but
it does not support WEP, only WPA2 to promote a more secure
environment. Of course, when I make the router/AP change, I would
expect to use my new TPad T60s that support 'g' access and WPA2.
Oops! Cannot do this because neither the Intel PRO/1000
[8086:109A] nor the Intel 3945 a/b/g [8086h:4227h]
adapters. [OT for this list, but no audio support
either; applicable because it is a netlabs.org project
as are the two network adapters.]
