    Is there any reason a CNI that is set up on the network should not work when the ethernet is plugged into a wireless adapter ? The CNI is fine connected via ethernet and the adapter is fine connected via WiFi. But CNI doesn't seem happy with WiFi.

    Which wireless access point are you using?
    I think you will need to use "AP client mode" on the wireless access point connected to the CNI.

    Hi Jamie,

    There are no known issues with CNIs and WiFi networks, but it's not a common scenario. Can you provide more information about your setup - which CNI are you using (5500CN or Wiser/5100CN2) and which NetGear adapter? And what kind of problems are you experiencing?
