DaveB: Regarding "condescending, hostile tone" in my initial post to kick off the thread, point taken and apologies all around, since I was indeed smiling when I wrote this. No offense intended, should have used an emoticon.

And finally, The Solution:

I don't need "zero configuration" WiFi, and support for certificate-based 802.1x authentication simply doesn't justify all the aggravation.

Thanks again.
