Search through the list archives at http://lists.2rosenthals.com/os2-wireless_users/List.html, and you should come up with a slew of discussion threads concerning XWLAN and this issue. I'm not surprised that you have experienced that behavior (and now I'm expecting a n onslaught of criticism from the rest of the group as to why connecting both interfaces to the same network - even when the NICs aren't properly teamed - is a *good* thing :-) ). > By the way, did they get that PM WiFi tool to work by > now? > > ??? Are you referring to XWLAN, now up to version 2.14? See http://wlan.netlabs.org and the official XWLAN discussion list at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.wlan.general/ for more information (and we are fortunate enough to have the author, Christian Langanke, as a regularly-contributing member of this list, as well). -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com eComStation Consultants www.ecomstation.com Novell Users Int'l www.novell.com/openenterpriseserver Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------
