I noticed that. I was trying to set up a peer-to-peer (ad-hoc) network
with my Newton. I couldn't figure out why Escale claimed the network
wasn't there (it might have connected briefly at one point, but I don't
recall). I had to go about it that was as my router also does not pass
classic AppleTalk packets and I also wanted to see if it was encryption
that was getting me down. Oh well, enough about my attempts.
