Unplugged — Show 2 — Virtual Access Points

This is the second podcast from the Packet Pushers devoted to Wireless Networking. After Jennifer Huber joined the Packet Pushers, we agreed that an occasional wireless podcast about would be worth doing. Herewith, is the second episode of Packet Pushers Unplugged on wireless networking.
