Thanks for the tip, still learning all these ifconfig commands. I gotta say the scan option in ifconfig rocks! >I wish someone knew why kismet won't channel hop... > > Well, kismet does channel hop for me. Funny, if I try to use dstumbler it won't channel hop though. Some entries in my kismet.conf file: # Version of Kismet config version=2005.06.R1 #I'm only scanning the 'b' channels although scanning all the 'a' channels #was working fine, just took to long. Most people in my neighborhood were #using 802.11b source=radiotap_bsd_b,ath0,Atheros # Do we channelhop? channelhop=true # How many channels per second do we hop? (1-10) channelvelocity=5 _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
