I'll try the broadcast enable in a minute, but was wondering - will disabling multicast also disable the ability for my other Rios to listen in and sync up to a main Rio? I remember reading that you need to enable either broadcast or multicast in the kernel, true? Any easy way to do this without recompiling the kernel? (Stock RH 9 at the moment - trying to keep this system relatively "pure")

EDIT:

Dang, looks like I am running Multicast, from my ifconfig...
