When connecting to the network        for the first time, I was prompted to select "Is this a Home, Work or        Public network?" Since everything is mine anyway, I picked "Work".              But since the laptop can see all the other Network icons that represent        the other pcs tells me that the wifi isolation is not isolating. :(              I am ok with wired pcs connected. But I certainly don't want any wireless        device to spy on the network.              Meanwhile, I noticed that the config has an option to limit the number of        devices connecting to any particular wireless SSID. I haven't tested if a        limit of "1" will block any further wireless connections.              But I think this smartRG sr360 is a piece of Sh*t. And I found out much        too late to "complain" to Acanac, I think.              Do you see any reason not to trust the config settings if you saw the ones        that I posted?              SSID: ilovebooks-1, Isolate clients = YES. And there is even another        "Isolate Clients" setting above that.                      ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.43        * Origin: /|ug's Point, Ont.
