Hi there, do you mind telling me how you do the 'listing' of available
APs? I tried wistumbler but it locked up my box more often than not (was
using 6.0 just before PRERELEASE#1,  iwi as module).
Maybe this issue is fixed if I build the latest iwi into the kernel?

I also have installed kismet but havent configured it ...

thx
Beto
