I believe the answer to your question is yes, it is illegal.
Basically the laws here make the unauthorized access of a computer or
computer network illegal. While you may not access or attempt to access
the host network's computer(s), you are undeniably accessing the network.

I'm sorry, I'd have to disagree. I've used T-mobile extensively in my

Free WiFi Providers Fire Back
September 26, 2003
Free WiFi providers said Friday that, for them, every day is "One Unwired
Day".
On Thursday, Intel, Cometa Network, At&T Wireless and a host of providers
offered "One Unwired Day", where participants with WiFI-enabled notebooks
could surf the I

The problem I see with this is that it will have a tendency to be off
because of private labeling. For example, I have a couple of Compaq laptops
with Compaq branded WL200 modules installed. The OUI for these comes back to
Compaq but the devices are actually Orinoco golds.
I imagine that the same

As much as I like and use Linksys wired products, I have had ZERO luck with
their wireless stuff. Problems similar to those described here. APs dying
for no apparent reasons, Wi-Fi going down, again, inexplicably. I finally
solved the problem by completely abandoning all Linksys wireless hardware

I don't think they are being ignored, simply dismissed as a poor option in
most cases, as are the PCI-PC Card adapters.
Most, not all, but most desktops are located under a desk, against the wall
or in some other out of the way place. This tends to place the PC "box" or

I believe what they are saying is that you should use static IP's on your
wireless network and turn off DHCP.

Not really all that surprising. Verizon has been partnered, for quite some
time now, with Linksys selling (and perhaps more importantly, supporting)
Linksys broadband routers to it's customers so this is really just a natural
progression of that partnership. From a business standpoint, it makes se

Somewhere on your machine (probably somewhere under the \windows\ directory)
there should be a directory with a great many .cab files. Locate that
directory and remember it for later.

then it sees the card but isn't receiving signals from any APs.

Is Ministumbler showing the card itself?
I'm using an Orinoco gold on an iPaq (underPPC2002) and it works great.
Which OS are you using. The PPC hardware shouldn't matter.

Sales people are only pushy when you LET them get away with it. My standard
response to "Can I help you" is "no." If they persist, I find a simply and
stern "go away" usually does the trick.
