Still learning this, but I came up with 6 seconds because of the 24 total channels for b & g. 80211b and 80211g use the same frequency. So there is only 12 channels not 24. I have an old compaq m300 laptop, which is running pretty much at 95%-100% with kismet. My first linux box was a 233mhz to...

NICE! I've been meaning to play around with something like that, a kind of just plug it in and it will do the rest kinda guy. I love that case too, I have the same one I believe, a Home Depot special right? Only thing I'd be worried about is those antennas snapping off if it ever fell off the seat,...

Like all good projects they never end. This started out as this http://www.wigle.net/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=1142 All the hardware is the same but in a new box. http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd24/davessamson/wigle1.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd24/davessamson/wigle2.jpg 12dbi antennas,...

I am lucky to live in one of the most populated cities in the country for wardriving, "Los Angeles". I work 30+ miles from home and the side streets are sometimes as fast the frwys. So I decided to take my laptop and war drive on the way home one day. Then I realized that driving side str...

In the software, I had to point it to /dev/usb0 instead of /dev/ttyS0. On the serial GPS itself,

I figure when he gets that far that will be next question.

If you are in the USA, you might watch the upcoming Black Friday Thanksgiving sales. Last year I got two USGlobalsat bu-353 USB GPS for USD $30 each. It's much less wires than keeping your serial GPS charged, it's smaller, and I got better performance. I'm not making this stuff up. The BU-353 shoul...

I will probably be using BackTrack 3 (at least until I get drivers for Ubuntu that are capable of monitor mode.) and I made the suggested changes on my GPS. I probably would never have figured that out on my own. What wireless card are you using? I run Ubuntu with no problem with monitor mode. Prox...

I have a Garmin eTrex Legend and I want to use it with GPSD + Kismet, but the cable to hook it to the computer is RS232/serial and my laptop doesn't have a RS232/serial connector on it. I've been looking at some RS232/serial to USB adapter cables, but I'm not sure what to get. I hope you guys can h...

I downloaded debian 4.04 and installed it to my wardriving laptop that was previously running netstumbler. Kismet and gpsd were not included. They were not in the package manager list, so I typed sudo apt-get install gpsd and it said that the package was not found and did the same for kismet. I am ...

I needed a raster webmap for claiborne parish in north louisana. There wasn't one to download but it had a request new button, I clicked that and a message appeared saying it would be a few minutes before the map was generated. It has been a day and no map. Is there problem? Or do I need more patie...

I am using an orinoco gold pc card with a dell latitude CPI 400mhz laptop running windows xp. The gold card was working fine then near the last hour of a 4 hour wardrive it stopped working. The led on the card was on, but there were aps present, netstumbler said no aps active. When i pulled the car...

yes,sure,no, ok why not

Very nice. All you need now is 200 miles a day on it and you'll be good to go.

I'm looking for a Bay Area based individual with a quality wardriving setup who would be interested in a day's work. A town in this area signed a contract for city-wide Wi-Fi with our ISP, but then under pressure from "electrosensitive" individuals, voided the agreement. I've done a brief...

Forgot myself. I've been around a while, mostly peeking, not saying much. I've been wardriving for about 3 years, but I only started uploading files last year. I'm a Semiconductor equipment technician for IBM, in other words, if you have a Wii, any form of Xbox or PS3 (do people actually have those...
