Someone posted a URL recently of someone's hacking/research attempts on
the firmware of the DWL-900AP+ and other similar AP's based on the same
hardware. The page was mentioned there.

Apparantly there is another page in some firmwares called p802.htm which
enables you to play with the 802.1x settings. It doesn't seem to be in
the 2.1 or 2.3 firmware for the 900AP+.

Cool, that's good to know. Thanks, I hadn't had a chance to test it.
