wifi SSID vs network sharing

Nov 04, 2007 0 Replies

I know that Vista has started to address this issue, but recently - when I did the McDonalds and other public WiFi tests I thought of this major concern.... SSID vs networking sharing (on or off)



At home - all the laptops share some portion of files - the public documents at least. Vista has added a concept of linking the network SSID name with how things are shared.



I wonder if there are any tools to perform this task for XP ?



Basically - match the SSID with turning on/off network sharing... all or nothing



ie - Panera = turn off sharing attwifi = turn off sharing homelan203 = turn on sharing
