Hello,
I have found that some users at my office have both a 802.11b and
100mbs Ethernet connection at the same time. The 802.11b is not from our
network so I fear that this could be a security breach. How can I configure
their Windows XP laptops to accept only one connection at a time?
Thanks

What do you mean by 802.11b is not from your network? ...someone installed
wireless equipment in the bathrooms without telling you about it?

Jack,
They are picking up 802.11b from another company's network in our
building. I do not have any wireless running as part of our network.
