I was blaming the access point but it doesn't make sense that it works fine
on my ubuntu test server. It's as if its not sending the request fast enough
to the AP to send to the client to be accepted. I am racking my brains over
this one, its very strange... I am using mac auth so it is an open network
and only authorized macs are allowed to get on. This is the way they want it
setup here so that there is nothing to be done on the client side. I am in
agreement with you but I have to do what they want, not what I think is
best.

I was blaming the access point but it doesn&#39;t make sense that it works fine on my \
ubuntu test server. It&#39;s as if its not sending the request fast enough to the AP \
to send to the client to be accepted. I am racking my brains over this one, its very \
strange... I am using mac auth so it is an open network and only authorized macs are \
allowed to get on. This is the way they want it setup here so that there is nothing \
to be done on the client side. I am in agreement with you but I have to do what they \
want, not what I think is best.<br> <br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 28, 2011 \
