Taym carpal tunnel Registered: 18/06/2001 Posts: 2504 Loc: Roma, Italy	I am thinking to buy it for home. I just need a reliable WAP-N . No extra feature as DHCP, DNS, etc. is located elsewhere in my network. Has anyone used it? I'm familiar with several corporate class Cisco Waps (Aironets, mostly), but never tried this one in particular. Oh, I need WPA encryption and MAC Address filter. I can't understand if the latter is available. Edited by Taym (10/01/2013 17:21) _________________________ = Taym = MK2a #040103216 * 100Gb All/Colors Radio * 3.0a11 * Hijack = taympeg

It's more of a old habit, for me, to use it, but there's no real reason these days. _________________________ = Taym = MK2a #040103216 * 100Gb All/Colors Radio * 3.0a11 * Hijack = taympeg
