[NTLUG:Discuss] Re: Linksys won't let Prism2 dirviers load!

[Patrick R. Michaud]

I got my WEP11 about two weeks ago from Fry's Electronics in Plano, $99.  
Worked fine once I did the firmware upgrade and figured out that the
10-base-T cable they supplied didn't work.  It doesn't have any firewall 
capabilities in it--it simply converts a 10-base-T connection into a 
wireless one (and adds WEP encryption if needed).
