Well, it's nice to know that you *finally* found your solution -- and
learned an awful lot about wireless networking in Linux to boot!
I am only slightly younger than you, and I make such mistakes every day
before breakfast, so don't be embarrassed.
I just finished troubleshooting a vexing firewall problem in Mac OS X.
Got several members of our IT department involved. It turns out I forgot
to turn off some software I had installed 1-1/2 years ago. Now *that*
was embarrassing.
Good night!
Best wishes,
Clint
