[nycwireless] Most compatible/secure password settings for Airport

2004-09-08 Thread marco
Hello all,

I am installing an Airport which needs to be accessed by many different
constantly changing non-technical people.  I have placed it on its own
ip, firewalled away from any internal networks.  The airport is to
provide internet access for visitors.

I have a 13 character password, and am using 40bit WEP encrytion.  For
some reason users with XP can't connect.  I found some information
about using Windows XPs own drivers vs. the card drivers (both don't
work).  I changed the password to 13 characters because the XP client
seemed to insist upon this, also does not work.

Everytime I change the settings I disrupt service for other users, so I
thought I would ask what the preferred settings are.  Links are
appreciated also.

Thank you,

Marco

 [1] As expected, the Wi-Fi Alliance is now certifying products to an 
 interim standard called Wi-Fi Multimedia, or WMM: The standard, which is 
 a precursor to 802.11e, is meant to improve audio, video, and voice 
 applications over Wi-Fi. A handful of products from vendors including 
 Atheros, Cisco, Broadcom, and Intel have already been certified for WMM. 
 The 802.11e standard will include quality of service mechanisms, which 
 will allow network administrators to give priority to traffic such as 
 voice that suffers from delays.

given that most serious wifi operators already, within limitations, do
this. This will affect who?

Hi all --
I'm a writer at National Journal's Technology Daily in Washington DC,
and I'm working on a story that's too complicated to explain here, but
if anyone uses Apple's Airtunes product
(http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/airtunes.html) I'd love to hear
from you. I need to hear from you asap.
Alternatively, if you have a lot of digital music on your hard drive
and
live in an environment with unencrypted WiFi networks around you or
any
other kind of unencrypted wireless networks for that matter, I'd love
to
have a quick chat with you.
