Hi,
I've searched the MS Knowledgebase and the Linksys knowledgebase to no
avail. Can someone help?
The linksys utility that sets up the wireless connection to the A.P.
loads *after* a user has logged on (in this case on Win98). But.. my
users authenticate to a domain controller, so with out a network
connection they can't authenticate so they can't log on.
And they can't log on until the wireless utility starts, and the
wireless utility doesn't start until the log on.
Geddit?
Is there a way to get windows to load the wireless utility before log
on, thus giving them a path to the domain controller, and therefore
the ability to log on.
This seems to be a major short comming of the linksys adapter, which
otherwise provides a good service.
Thanks,
Will
