   Hi Brian,   
      
   Geez, this stuff always just worked and the support needs were always    
   low. We don't get any feedback on this much more, so whether they are    
   using it or not, its good to see there is still "interest."  We need    
   to find out what to do with it.   
      
   Authentication for the kids tablets?  Interesting. Asking in the    
   winserver support mailing list may come back with something.   
      
   Although RADIUS is a complex protocol, with wcRADIUS, it is too easy    
   to setup. :)   
      
   First, of course, the first step is to get client (the RADIUS setup on    
   tablets) secret passwords match is set.   
      
   Is this the password? The client (device) or is it beyond that with an    
   wcUSER (wildcat user) authentication?   
      
   Set a higher verbose debug to see if there is anything there.   
      
   Other than that, off the top of my head, make sure that the router    
   RADIUS setup supports one of the basic authentication methods. I don't    
   recall the typical client options generally offered but I recall its    
   plain vs (MS) CHAP.   
      
   Let me know how that works out. I am very interested to see how    
   WINSERVER with its RADIUS support among other standard IETF protocols    
   can benefit with this new smart device everywhere world. :)
