do you have a specific question or would you like us to write a book for you? Do some research for yourself. Forums are for specific questions not schooling. Jeremy Leasure

My suggestions are just that, suggestions.

the 802.1Q Vlan spec adds four bytes to the ethernet spec, raising the maximium packet size to 1518 from 1514. if you need to run VLANs on wireless (eww) then be sure that the gear does not discard packets over 1514 bytes I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.

Heh, and make sure you don't end up with my problem, every time I wander through the building I have to reset my handheld as I wander from network to network through the vlan that our (useless) ITS dept set up.

Maybe you should give me the name fo your company so I can come to work with the useless IT guys and help fix the Vlan issue.

We found the expensive Symbol and Cisco Access Points and cards did WAY better at reconnecting to our wireless VLAN than the cheap SMC & Dell access points and cards. For relatively fixed use at close range (mobile classroom) the SMCs were fine I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
