Re: Wireless at IETF

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <harald at alvestrand.no>]

Tangential:
At the IEEE meeting following the IETF, someone asked me "how do I turn off 
ad hoc mode".

I was hard put to find an answer for Windows XP with the standard drivers 
(I use 2000 and a Cisco driver kit).

Suggestion: Make instructions *with screenshots* of how to turn off ad hoc 
mode on Windows XP available at the next IETF.
