forcing wirless nic to use an ap

OwenM · 2008-03-27 23:47:31

Anyone know how to force a nic to use a particular AP when a choice is available? I have two access points in work, one works all the time the other sometimes. I know this because I am using network stumbler, I only get connectivity problems when attached to a particular AP - some of the time. Restarting the AP fixes it…

Anyone know how to force a nic to use a particular AP when a choice is available?

I have two access points in work, one works all the time the other sometimes. I know this because I am using network stumbler, I only get connectivity problems when attached to a particular AP - some of the time. Restarting the AP fixes it but restarting the AP is not always an option because I only have physical access some of the time.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Tks,

If you examine the properties of the wireless connection, it should show you a list of AP's you recently connected to. Reorder them so the working AP at work is above the other one.
