Is it WEP? Then it is not likely "doing what it is supposed to do." With a tool such as AirSnort or Kismet and enough traffic (4 million packets or so), a hacker can determine the WEP key. See here for one of many articles on the problem. It also has links to AirSnort and Kismet info. http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/wireless/excerpt/wirlsshacks_chap1/index.html Priscilla > > > > "This e-mail may contain confidential information and may be > legally privileged and is intended only for the person to whom > it is addressed.
