Please log in for more thread options What can I expect from: IP? - does WLAN have its own subnet with DHCP (or DHCP relay)? - packet filtering? - packet filtering per connection (when using radius)? Security? - WEP with RADIUS? What policies can be checked? Performance? - What is the performance with some cheap ASUS or Sweex PCI cards? | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options The WAP54G is just a simple wireless network hub. It doesn't have any DHCP features or packet filtering features. The AP itself can be configured as a DHCP client, but it does not do any routing or DHCP relaying. If you need to keep your WLAN on a different subnet, then you'll need a wired router (or a switch that'll do VLAN routing) that can do the DHCP relaying for you. The WAP54G supports WEP and WPA with Radius authentication. As for policies, there's a million options, what are you specifically looking for? Expect to get around 20-30 Mbps through the access point... Lars M. Hansen http://www.hansenonline.net (replace 'badnews' with 'news' in e-mail address) | ||||||||||||||||
