It gave a reading of 6 for signal strength using the bare adapter and as high as 23 with the wok I can only assume that whatever the value of the increments that the ratio is accurate. http://www.kismetwireless.net/ Kismet is the program for Linux Thanks for that. I had a couple of others but more is better. http://www.netstumbler.com/ Network STumbler for Windows is better and if you hook a GPS receiver to the PC it will even log the position of every signal it finds that couples directly to Google EArth! Way cool scanner for wifi at home or riding around in a vehicle. Net Stumbles has a problem in that it only works with certain specific Wireless chip sets. Unfortunately not the ones I have. http://apradar.sourceforge.net/ http://sectools.org/ Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |
