Could be, but most Linksys boxes now default to infrastruture rather  
than ad-hoc. Plus, Darin would be unlikely to see what he sees were  
his laptop in ad-hoc mode.

I suspect a routing issue, most likely because the WAP box defaults  
to being a DHCP server, most likely putting the laptop on a different  
subnet that the router is unlikely to route without some specific  
intervention (think BFH).

However, anything's possible. Especially as this list has gone from  
escargo to Scirocco to goes like hell to wifi in the blink of an eye.  
pretty cool, if you ask me. speaks to a diversity of interests, all  
bound together by hating to love our s-cars. Or do I have that  
backwards?

- -Ian.
