No worries, I didn't take anything personally, I doubt if anyone did.
I'd guess that you'd have to push someone around to get them to
reconfigure the network for ya. Maybe you could set up a base station of

convince the admins to help you out. :-) Maybe w'll get an updated
driver soon that'll be more flexible as well.
good luck.
