I have an Aironet CB21AG 802.11b client adapter installed in an IBM ThinkPad T22 connecting to a Linksys BEFW11S4 802.11b wireless router. One of the security essentials indicated by Linksys is to disable SSID broadcast after all wireless devices have been configured.
When I do so the link between my laptop and the router is lost. The adapter's user manual indicates that if the SSID is blank on the Available Infrastructure and Ad Hoc Networks page - which it is when SSID broadcast is disabled - you cannot activate the network.
Is there anyway to ensure the Aironet client adapter is able to communicate w/my wireless router with SSID broadcast disabled?
