Thanks, Tom.  I'll keep that in mind for the next go-around.  Here is the
MAC we were using during the test: 4C:5E:0C:31:C4:43

It was acting like we were making a connection to the Westin, based on the
coordinates that were dialed in.  I really wasn't expecting anything from
that direction.  However, it would be cool to verify if it truly was the
Westin that we were passing traffic through.  The best RSSI we saw was
right around 75.
