Re: ip theft!!

[Bill Sangiwa <bsangiwa at twiga.com>]

my knowledge on wireless sez that, if you have for-isp wireless gear u 
should be able to restrict (or call it block) certain range of ip, that 
wil be allowed in/out of the device, which will do pretty much what you 
want. if by accident you have choosed a product which does have that 
feature then you have what they call corporate wireless lan devices.. not 
sure much can be done on switches mine (hp pro-curve) does not
