 While the contributor's code is greatly appreciated, technically speaking, the above statement is only partly accurate. It's not a FreshTomato limitation that prevents wireless clients from being tracked. It's more so the way the integration code was written. While the contributor's code is greatly appreciated, technically speaking, the above statement is only partly accurate.
