yeah, your're right! i was looking again at the info in the initial post. i just wasn't reading the info in BW's initial post correctly yesterday. this is the same probe that NS sends out...i've seen it before. we all know this is how NS does "get AP Name." i've seen it w/ ethereal before. even dlink AP's send out "Prism II."
but the annoying thing is how the RG sends out the model/serial/firmware rev. this is just an invitation for version-specific hacking. kind of like when linux gives out the version & kernel rev in response to a telnet.

so the upshot is if one runs AP manager, everything is relatively safe. good work, HcRul.
