<P>The quick answer is no, they dont. Storage of wep wpa keys and managing
connection secuirty is in software as far as I am aware and I have never seen
this supported on wifi either...</P>

<DIV>My Dell (on confirming) E6500 has a BIOS option of WOL on WLAN, so I
suggest it will depend on your BIOS. Like Richard I have no idea how
it works, but the Dell BIOS refers to a special WLAN message - presumably a
WiFi Magic packet....so presumably the setting powers the WiFi card when
stood by or even off.</DIV>
<DIV>Look to your HW BIOS.</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
