Or is there a new driver that detects and presents > a list as the Airport does? The settings affect only the choice and settings of network ports=20 including Airport settings. It doesn't save the settings for the=20 wireless config prefpane for the wireless driver. It has to be set=20 manually for each different wireless network. I guess that if there was=20= a way to make the wireless config pref pane a plug in to the Network=20 preferences (an extra tab similar to how Airport settings work) then it=20= would be possible to save the setting in different locations. //Rob -- =20 To be is to do. - Socrates To do is to be. - Sartre Do be do be do. - Sinatra |
