I still don't understand what 10.4.3 would have introduced that would require some intervention from your IT department. 802.11b and 802.11g are well known specifications and every vendor wishing to be compliant has to go through certification tests before he can call his stuff 802.11b or 802.11g compliant. The only problem you might experience is that not all wireless access points support AppleTalk, but, otherwise, it shouldn't matter. The network negotiation from the PowerBook to the WAP should be the very same. Heck, it should be the same if you switch to built-in Ethernet. If it's 802.11b or 802.11g, then it should work. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] hat: n.
