on personal wireless APs and wireless laptops

        If one has a personal wireless AP in Salt Lake City
this week, PLEASE make double sure that your personal AP
is not using the network name/SSID string of the official
wireless network (i.e. NOT "IETF").    

        And there are still some "rogue" (i.e. unofficial)
access points claiming to be "IETF" in some places in the
meeting area.  This causes lots of operational problems.
So PLEASE verify that your laptop is NOT accidentally
(or intentionally) also advertising/operating as an access
point and also NOT operating in "Ad Hoc" mode.

Yours for better wireless access,

Ran
