From there I have the option to login to the domain or locally to the machine itself. It's my understanding that while you're at this page, your wireless connection is not working yet. So, therefore, how can it be possible to log on wirelessly?
The logon screen I'm talking about is illustrated here:

So I guess they're called Active Directory Domains. I've tried asking the Systems Admin about this stuff, and he's more clueless than I am. Just looking to shed a little light in this area.
