Hello, I am a new list member, geeky amateur radio nickname "doc".

-- Network Computing Mobile Observer #2.12 --

Just arrived in my Inbox and referenced this old March article that
includes Ethereal.  The article labeled your URL incorrectly as .org
instead of .com -- I have advised them and suggested they send a
correction to their subscribers.

They state in their chart (excerpt below) that Ethereal does not handle
"Rogue AP detection.  Is this correct?  Will this feature be added some
time soon?

I hope to get wireless in place at the small College where I work. I
need to be able to show that it is somewhat secure.

Thanks!  doc
