Re: [Thinkpad] WiFi access point scanning utilities forIBMinternal802.11 a/b/g card

It is still a little tricky to get going, but then I have 5 different
network adaptors installed in this X20 (Mini-PCI, D;Link PCMCIA, D-LINK USB,
AirCard 750, Phoebe USB), so all the wireless are a little dicey on start
up. Requires me to go in and re-enable the network WEP a couple of times -
saves the key but not the setting?
Maybe it's confused!
Once enabled, it does seem solid now, the firmware upgrade plus the change
to "open" seems to have cured the IP problems.
