Just a side note, for quick laptop scan, NetStumbler was quick and easy, but no Vista support, or 64 bit XP support, finally Meta Geek has an open source application called Inssider. This is great for setting routers in a crowed environment

R52H WOES They were supposed to let me know when they had the connectorized version!!! I want one of those. It's not much but it would be great for quick peeks at what's going on and a guy could have it with him all of the time. I almost bought a yellowjacket. One of those would be great for the multipath detection functions. I'm sure I ran into that last night. Never did get the customer working right, only one pine tree in the way of a 3 block path! Great signal, 80 to 100% packet loss. Strange. If I'd have had a yellow jacket I'd have been able to check for interference and multipath. But the spectrum analyzer in it isn't as good as the bumblebee and it does fewer bands. laters, Marlon (509) 982-2181 (408) 907-6910 (Vonage) Consulting services 42846865 (icq) WISP Operator since 1999!
