While enjoying a cup of coffee sitting in the forum of my University building, i noticed signs being put up advertising the introduction of a wireless 'Nomadic' network to the computer system.
Great, i thought. The perfect time to get airport so i can surf at my leisure! However, upon further investigation, i found this:
It is possible to connect MacOS 10.2 systems to the roaming wireless service but by using an alternative wireless adapter, not Apple's standard AirPort wireless cards. This is due to a technical limitation of AirPort (Apple provide PPPoE in AirPort base stations but not AirPort cards).
What (if anything) does this mean? Any help on the matter would be much appreciated. Also, could airport Extreme help?
