[MLB-WIRELESS] Enterasys AP and Firmware Question

[Ryan Abbenhuys]

Exactly what I'm trying, but from what I can work out, the AP's firmware is
overwriting the Karlnet firmware on the card when I insert it.   I'm
assuming I need a Karlnet AP firmware, this firmware I've got must be for
linking two cards together only.

I might give a go on one of our regions Point-To-Point backbone links which
just uses two cards in Ad-Hoc mode.
