Come to find out that the news item we posted the other day about Netgear releasing 802.11n Draft 2.0 firmware was a bit premature.

The firmware for the WNR854T router, which is based on Marvell silicon, is the only draft 2.0 upgrade posted. The upgrade for the matching WN511T Cardbus card is still in verification. According to Netgear, it won’t be released for “a couple of weeks”.

Something I'm surprised I don't get more questions about is how to tell when someone (who you don't want there) is trying to use your wireless LAN. I swear there used to be a simple application that came with early Macintoshes called "Knock Knock" that would pop up a dialog when someone attempted to connect to your Mac. I'm looking for something similar, preferably free, that runs on Windows.
