We got the AP & 2 card deal at my office.  The cards have only worked
under Win98 to current.  I'm working with Intel but I have a feeling they
have no idea that their driver is b0rked.

They aren't a Aironet or Lucent Wavelan-oid, so someone will have to hack
a new driver. Hint: They're rebadged Symbol cards.

The AAA problem is still being worked on .  Some APs even support RADIUS
but I have no idea how you activate it.

This is a problem the BAWUG group is tracking, as it applies to public
802.11 networks too.
