[NCLUG] Linksys WAP11

[Quent]

I forgot to add - I'm not using the Linksys access point with my Linksys
wireless card, but rather the Apple Airport Base Station, which I was able
to configure with a nice Java app on a Linux box.  The AUTHOR file says:

It's one of the better deals out there for access points and it
looks like a little UFO :)
