Network Question

[mjhinnant]

I have an EMAC thats part of a wireless network.

On the EMAC, when you click on the network staus icon on the menu bar and the available networks drop down, there are 3 networks listed that I have no idea where came from.

I only created one, and thats for my internal network.

Whats going on here and is there something I should do about it?
