[TechnologyManagers] Wireless weirdness

[Ron Friedman]

Pierre,

What brand/model/release of AP are you using?  I'm assuming it was the same
one used before swapping out the Sonciwall with no changes.  Were there any
changes in cable connections, addressing or routing other than swapping out
the Sonicwall?  Has the power been cycled on the AP?

Can you tell what mode the other laptops are connecting (11b,11g,11a,11n)?
Our HP laptops use Intel's wireless chipset NICs.  Could it be a difference
in the NICs and how the feature set is configured?  Could those MAC
addresses be disallowed by the AP or DHCP?

Sorry, by can't see I mean no SSID shows on the list of available wireless
networks.

Oops dumb question.  You stated it was the patron's laptops.

Still, let us know what "can't see" means and laptop models.

Its not an IPv6 issue, is it?

Pierre,

Haven't had that but we use HP laptops here.

These are the library's own laptops???  Model #?

"Can't see" meaning no SSID or meaning no DHCP?
