ok can you explain to me how you connect to a hotspot that your net
stumbler detects? I have tried using net stumbler on my laptop in the
states and it shows me hotspots but I never seem to be able to log
onto any of them so what's the solution?
Does net stumbler allow you to configure it so it will connect for you
or is their something you need to do to be able to log onto one of the
hotspots?
Open your Windoze networking icon and doubleclick on the one you want on
the list? Click on the wireless network Icon in the lower right panel and
it opens. All the networks it can hear, at the moment, are in the list.
This is part of XP, not Netstumbler. Once XP knows you want to connect to
this hotspot, it will connect automatically next time. Just pick AWAY when
it asks you what kind of connection this is. Netstumbler is a
scanner/logger. I don't think it will connect for you, but I may be wrong.
