Default Wireless Internet while Cruising

War Linux is a package of Kismet, nmap. wavemon and several other wifi
utilities that are way past anything you would need for finding a place to
get connected. That is unless you are into black hatting. You really don't
need to hack into an AP in the Caribbean as when there are APs around most
of them are not secure anyway.

If you REALLY want to geek out and see more detailed wifi info then get a
