"Why can�t my Dell TrueMobile wireless card connect to an Apple� AirPort wireless access point or wireless router? Some wireless manufacturers add features that go above and beyond the scope of the 802.11 specification.
Some manufacturers add features to their devices to make them more secure or faster than the 802.11 wireless specification. In some cases, these specifications are not fully compatible with the 802.11 wireless specification or are proprietary and may have to be modified and/or disabled. When this occurs, you may be unable to establish a conection using your Dell TrueMobile wireless network card and your access point/wireless router.
NOTE:�
When configuring dual band wireless access points,�obtain separate�names�for each Service Set Identifier (SSID).�If the SSID for 802.11a and 802.11b are the same, the client wireless card will not associate to an SSID.
�Disable Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) on the Apple� AirPort.
Disable WEP encryption.
NOTE:�
WEP encryption will not work with the Dell TrueMobile wireless cards and the Apple AirPorts. For more information about Apple AirPorts and disabling WEP encryption, refer to http://www.apple.com/airport/.";
