I have been reworking our wireless from a single VLAN into three BSSID's on three VLANs. I have received a lot of good advice and help from this list. I have all VLANs up and running in our Data Center for test. Can I get feedback from the community on problems/comments about our final plan?

Does any one have any experience in using DSL as a private Point-to-Point solution where telephone lines already exist. Our local township has a scenario where running fiber would be too expensive and they already have extra phones lines. The buildings the wish to connect are about 500 ft apart

We have been running PEAP/LEAP for about 3 years on our wireless network. Originally, it was not widely supported and required a specific network card. Now it works well (XP has it built-in) with Windows and MAC machines. I understand it is not the most secure, but we rotate keys every 5

You brought up rogue AP detection. I have heard at least one vendor uses a MAC address database for this process. Anyone know of a Publicly available list of MAC address for APs? I know this would not be perfect detection but I could easily run a search with tools I already have. Martin D.

Wireless in dorms, a seat of the pants approach?
