IEEE 802.1x Authentication
In order to use EAP authentication, your client adapter and access point firmware must have matching
802.1X draft standards. In practical terms, this means that successful use of EAP usually requires that
the same vendor manufacture the wireless adapter and access point. So if you enable EAP here, you
had better use an access point that understands what TLS and MD5-Challenge mean.

Cisco
The Cisco Aironet 350 Wireless LAN Client Adapter is an option for the YEStablet 7370. If the
YEStablet detects the Cisco adapter, you will see a CISCO1 icon in Control Panel Æ Network and
Dial-up Connections and a Connection icon similar to
in the System Tray. This icon will have a
red

superimposed on it if there is no connection to an access point. Double-click on the CISCO1
icon to open the Cisco Wireless LAN Adapter Settings window with two tabs, IP Address and Name
Servers. These two tabs have already been explained at the beginning of the
