All,
We've recently seen some HP laptops (Windows 7 - no ICS running) start acti=
ng as wireless access points. They broadcast an SSID that looks like...
COMPUTERNAME-39800
Every time we get one in to look at it, we can't figure out anything that s=
hould be behaving like that.
So far, we've seen this on HP EliteBook 8560/8460 model laptops.
Anyone seen this?
