When configuring a wi0 interface, the available "authmode" settings are none, open, shared. The ifconfig manpage does not explain the meaning, nor the consequences of selecting either "open" or "shared. Of "open" and "shared", which one is more "secure" ?
Also, regarding wepmode, it turns out that on the Netgear MA401, wepmode ON is same as wepmode MIXED. Does this mean that anyone can connect without having the encryption key? I realize that even 128bit WEP keys are easily crackable these days, but I still would want to prevent connections that dont have the key. cheers, Arya __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
