I am sooooo upset right now that I can scream.

I have two aPPOs set up as AP/client. I currently am at the client end
of a "PtP" link. I want to switch back to wireless bridge mode. There is
no way to do this because the Wireless Bridge tab is unavailable in
SimpleMonitor, and I can't set the MAC address of my local aPPO in the
remote aPPO's MAC field. I switched to wireless bridge mode on the
remote unit, hoping that the MAC address would be stored (since I
previously had these two units in wireless bridge mode.

This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Why should I have to visit
and physically connect to each aPPO to switch operating modes!!!

Now I have to drive an hour to the other end, get into the location
(which is not open on Sunday), and physically connect an ethernet cable
to the unit. Isn't this "wireless" networking! It seems to me that the
tab should not be disabled, and should allow you to put in a MAC address
and save it before switching operating modes.

P.S. If anyone reminds me to bring a crossover cable with me, I'll kick
'em in the nuts. :)
