OKay, I found your posting.  Strangely, it pointed to
http://g04.com/html/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=52
wchi was an interesting article about using gmail to store your notes,
but had nothing to do with wireless networking.  I then searched that
site for F5D7230 and found a reference to
http://g04.com/html/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=70
which looks like the right thing.  Thanks.  I'm reading it now.
