Re: Cardinal Rules (FAQ) of wardriving

I'll add my bits: - Plan routes. If you really want to cover an area, take a webmap of the area, print it and start planning in which roads to hit in which order. You will cover a bigger area if you don't have to stop and look at the map every 2 corners, and it will be more enjoyable. And it will lo...

i did it like this (picture of a senao card with attached antenna leads) Looks nice. My laptop has its pcmcia slot on the left side and I usually have the laptop in a laptop bag, so if I want a card with external antenna, I'll have to find one where I can guard the antenna leads against breaking. T...

Re: KisMac Beginner HELP "seeing bandwidth leechers&quo

My best guess would be that what you see as 'clients' are actually clients rejected by your access-point because of the incorrect WEP key. With a lot of systems out there automatically trying to connect to a wireless network, some might even try encrypted networks. And fail.

Re: Save your connectors on pigtail/antennae

Interesting post, it does give me ideas on how to improve my wardriving laptop (a Dell latitude C640 . One thing I do disagree with slightly: While driving, you don't really need a CD (unless you're livebooting a Linux CD), to be burning DVDs, have extra HD or extra battery. Extra battery is for me ...

Re: tao

that's a very existential question. It is. Wigle is an addiction. You come back constantly with new wardrive logs, looking for that high of seeing 'New networks found with GPS locations'. Looking at slowly going up and down in the ranks. Planning detours through the city to visit 'uncharted' parts ...

WiGLE currently has 372 files queued for processing
I see items get removed from the queue, it's just verrrry slow so there is a buildup of entries.

The dual-hamster setup for keeping the site running must have one hamster sick or very tired. Please, think of the hamsters!

Re: War Rocketing...

From the article: Unsurprisingly, the rocket only detected two other networks. The two smaller rockets--one of which was launched in a rural area--found 3 access points in the sparsely populated area and 7 networks in near the college town of Charlottesville, VA. The rockets were built for less than...
