Wireless Question

Does anything special need to be done to make the Cisco 350 Series
Aironet Wireless card to work with a Linksys Wireless access point using
WEP? The card works fine with the Access Point when WEP is disabled but
not when enabled. Thanks in advance for your help.

Without the use of a valid WEP key the unauthorized wireless user will
not be able to get an IP in the 1st place.

You could check your DHCP log with a simple script against a file with
mac adresses of the allowed computers. Put that script into the cron and
execute as often as desired.
No tool, but an easy solution!

Greetings,

Does anyone know of a way or program that would let me know if an 
unauthorized computer has connected to my wireless network and been 
issued an ip address by DHCP? I am aware that I can check the DHCP log

to find this out, but I want something that will warn me in real time 
that a computer has connected.

Thanks,

Kamal Habayeb
