Correction to Previous



Sorry, didn't see the other post about you using Vista.

Not sure if the same rules apply, but I think they do.

AFAIK, no Extender will work with in conjunction with domain login. The Extender use the Fast User Switching, which does not function in a domain environment. XP MCE 2005 technicall had the Domain stuff disabled, you can "trick" it to use a domain environment, but it disables the use of an Extender or you can use MCE with and Extender, but you can't use the Domain Login and Cached Credentials.

The official word from Linksys is that the DMA220 won't connect to a
computer that is joined to a domain. The reason, they say, is that the guest
account cannot connect anonymously. Other articles I have found attribute
the problem to group policy settings.

So far, I have dispelled every single reason why this is happening, but
still no luck.

I added "remote desktop user" membership to the Guest account locally. I
did the same thing for the MCE user that linksys creates and played with it
in ways I cannot even recount. I made sure all group policy settings would
allow devices to connect on the network until my fingers got numb.

If it is as simple as permissions, why doesn't linksys provide a mod to the
firmware to allow adding a domain account to be the one signed on? If it is
something else, give us the tools to tweak our settings.

I want to start a movement.
