Well, I returned the 900ap and got the 614+. It's *way* better. Initial config is done through the web interface and WEP actually works with it, I couldn't get WEP to work on the 900ap. I'm not using the firewalling stuff, I just have it plugged into my network with a crossover from one of the 4 inside ports to my switch, disabled dhcp, and let my Netscreen continue to assign addresses. Works great.
