Hi Aart,

Thanks for your reply and also for Owen's suggestion.

Please help me collect the logs I required for further research.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

<WPA-PSK usually works fine, but in my opinion it's only a good solution
<for homes or VERY small business use where there are only 1 or 2
<wireless devices. Make sure your pre-shared key is at least 20
<characters long. I use a random password generator to create these.
<
<That said, I have seen some reports that WPA-PSK is not 100% wired-LAN
<equivalent. (It seems to depend on NIC drivers.) Using EAP-TLS
<documented in http://home.comcast.net/~clearviewtc, the wireless network
<is wired-equivalent. For example, computer GPOs, login scripts, RWW
<remote desktop, and WSUS updates all work the same as they do on wired
<LANs.
<
<Also, I recommend you use AES encryption rather than TKIP if your WAP/
<wireless router AND wireless NIC(s) support that. TKIP with a static
<key is more susceptible to cracking than AES. With dynamic keys, it's
<less of an issue.
