Lucent has changed their "orinoco" cards default channel from 3 to 10, therefore if you have an ad hoc infrastructure that for some reason speaks channel 3, be advised that you need to use wicontrol to change the channel. (-f 10). Friday I verified with our Mr. Singh that his orinoco card indeed works. Does anyone understand how channels actually work in BSS land? I've never owned an AP so I don't understand how they operate. I presumed that if you weren't worried about layer 2 loops, you could operate it in ad hoc mode, with a fixed channel, OR in BSS mode, what actually occurs? regards, Jim Binkley jrb@cs.pdx.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
