Wireless Network/Access2K

[Phill]

I have a system Office XP (Access 2K format), it works
fine when running on a ethernet network, but after I put
it on a wireless (WEP encrytion) a simple update command
(using CurrentDb.Execute "Update...") hangs and lock the
system, forcing an end task. The wireless network is in
a small trailer (4 computers in all) and the signal
strength is excellent. Has anyone experienced such
problems? Are there issues with Access and data
encryption? Thanks for all ideas.

You're right: Access cannot be run reliably over WiFi or any other kind of
unstable network, unless you use something like Terminal Server.
