Hello Majordomo,

What if a new range of 802.1x card was released with the next generation of encryption that would establish the signal strength of the computer that it was to communicating with and lock it, so that anyone else trying to listen in with the same card would have to have the same amplitude signal, ie radius or scaled amplitude using their antenna in both directions. This would make it more specialized to hack into - or even better, knowing if the connection has been hacked and where information has gone.

I don't know how to communicate this to the community, and I don't appear to be on a mailing list. Could you please add me because, I'm very interested in getting parts and creating a wireless connection.

Kind regards,
Jame Gardiner
