I am not a wireless expert; however, I've setup a few network to know that sniffer such as airsnort and Kismet are essentially "useless" if one designs the network with "PEAP" and "EAP-TTLS". Furthermore, if you implement IPSec (AES) over "PEAP" or "EAP-TTLS", then that will make kismet useless. I welcome anyone to "hack" into my home wireless network because that is what I have.

It is sort of like using tcpdump on a hub. In addition, kismet also makes WEP less useful: http://www.kismetwireless.net/documentation.shtml "Kismet supports decrypting WEP as packets are captured. This enables Kismet to extract clients, IP ranges, and alert conditions out of WEP-enabled traffic." -Vince Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
