More Nintendo Wireless Wierdness

While the solution of sharing a common BSSID between two AP's was working nicely for the Wii, the more I thought about it the less of an ideal solution it seems to be. The issue that would be arising would be that during handover, there would be all manner of problems each AP having a [...]
