Wireless networking. It's amazing that the wireless software to manage our radios is so difficult. It does a half-way decent job, but anytime there's a problem it's completely untroubleshootable.<br><br>"New networks are found". Great. "Double click on a network to connect." Double click. Wait. Nothing. Click refresh. "You are not connected to any network. Networks: homenet, unsecured, you are connected to this network, click here to connect."<br><br>And then P2P wifi... while I'm sure it works in some crazy fashion, it's so obscure that no one uses it. Why can't it be like rendezvous, a presence-aware thing that just shows you what AP's and what computers are in the area, and allow you to connect to any at the same time?<br><br>Technology is so stupid.JamesFri, 27 Jun 2008 15:24:16 -0000
