This time the wireless WORKED, and Just Went On Working.

That hasn't happened for a while. THANK YOU!

        for novel interpretations of "WORKED", i'll
        have to agree with you.  In the rooms in Atrium I,
        we had very strong signal but never a DHCP lease was
        seen - on the 802.11b network.  the whole week.
        it was reported in the tracker.  I am greatful for
        folks w/ MAC's that had both "a" and "b" cards.
        building an ad-hoc network got others online.

Note that this was not an IETF meeting and the NOC reported back several times that the hotel switch in question was outside our control - not in the IETF room blocks - so the vender didn't enable our vlans. We had no way to route IETF network to that particular switch. We offered to help get you moved to a room with vlans enabled, and I never heard back...
