No, didn't see that when I bought.... my Linksys WAP's died one day (actually
they died about 4 days apart, we had 2 running), and I replaced them with this
one D-Link so I could use the G connection.  My hardwire lan port in this
Thinkpad has gone flakey, will randomly disconnect/reconnect, and since I use
the D-Link at home, it was better to just add the WAP here, and adjust the
power DOWN, and enable both Mac address and WEP 128bit encryption.  I've walked
around the office, and only at the extreme areas, do I lose the signal at this
power setting, so it works for me this way. Don't have many others trying to
connect, and if a guest comes in, and want's to wireless in, I can add their
mac address to the list for the duration of their stay, and enter the WEP
password to get them going.  When they leave, I delete their MAC address from
the authorized list.
