That did NOT work. I did try that before I posted the original message. Plus...if that worked, that would mean I or the User would have to perform that on every laptop. In all honesty, I've had to swap out the FVS for a Linksys 224. After I couldn't get the Access Points back online after the upgrade, enough was enough. It was basic economics - I was able to purchase 2 Linksys 224's for the price of one SRX5308.

I upgraded to 4.x and lost the configs which I was prepared for based on previous posts by other contributors. However, what I was NOT prepared for was that my Wireless Access Points (from another vendor competitor) stopped working. No matter what I tried, the WAPs would not pass traffic. I reset them to factory defaults, but still nothing. The interesting part is that I could login to the WAPs since they were connected of course via twisted pair, but they would not pass traffic at all. Between the FVS and the WAPs is a 8-port netgear hub.
I had to revert back to the 3.x software and the WAPs passed traffic again.
