Well since its a transmitting/receiving relationship, you need to find the carrier frequency of the WLAN and perhaps run around with a Field Strength Meter tuned to this frequency. For this to work properly of course, you'll need to be able to turn off all the other transceivers. Or else, you will need some sort of intelligent FSM to be able to decode the signal strength from the particular IP source you are trying to hunt.
A more complicated system such as a GPS type detector would require positional "listeners" littered around the area and in-phase out-of-phase calculations made versus signal strength received by each receiver computed to to give you approximate locations of the signal source. Too much work really. -----Original Message----- From: David Lagani�re [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 28, 2002 10:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Wireless LAN question Hi! Say an intruder connect himself to my wireless LAN, is there a way with a GPS and it's signal to know where he is physically? Where can I get more documentation on that?
