You don't have to. If your network is working fine, using it, then you may as well keep on using it. It's key feature isn't really just wireless, but in handling using different networks (allegedly) painlessly. e.g. Now you plug into your home LAN, later you plug into someone else's LAN, and you might use wireless, later on. With all that you have to do is just plug in, or get close to the wireless, and not have to select or reconfigure anything to use the different network. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
