Thanks!

I just started using the app yesterday. I love the sounds for networks, but I can't seem to find which one means what. I've heard a higher-pitched 'blip' as well as a lower one. Is one for "found network" and one for "found open network"?

Long time absent! I was pondering wardriving as with my current job I now have a Samsung Galaxy Tab with wi-fi and GPS. I search for "wardriving" on the market, and much to my surprise there's a WiGLE app! Only been at it for two days, but I'll probably be submitting a LOT more data now, as well as ...

Hadn't really thought of LiveCDs. I think think about DSL in QEMU, but didn't think it would work well running through QEMU.

I've got a 160 GB drive in my work laptop, and a spare 40 GB now. I'm going to *NIX the 40 GB probably this weekend and see what I get.

It wasn't that I lost lock; just that I left work and was moving at 35 mph with an OLD GPSr....it doesn't lock very fast, and it was foggy + cloudy which I'm sure didn't help; nor did trying to lock at that speed. But I didn't want to be late for work because "I was waiting on my GPSr to lock on ...

Picking them up on the interstate a block away will make perfect circles based on when you first/last saw them. These circles will be pretty inaccurate as to each APs actual coverage. I understand what you are saying. Most of it I knew, but was kind of ignoring, figuring that the implementation ...

I wish I could, but these are ones that belong to work - so I can't really mod them at the moment.

I've got a spare HDD for my laptop that I think I'm gonna throw Solaris on for kicks; I may put a different distro of Linux on it and start Kismetting relatively soon.

GPSGate is only a 14 day trial now.

Hahaha, no. It just means you're one of us "special people." I do plan to try and step up my searching and to really grid down Berwick pretty well with a buddy of mine. Maybe I'll grab a spare HDD at work and push linux on it for my laptop - so that I can just swap drives to change OSes. I can ...

Ah, makes sense. Just as good as weeding out in its own way.

The young one learns..

No, they're USB cards. If I had a serial to USB, I could Kismac with my Powerbook G4, but I don't have that critter. No spare monies at the moment either - we just had our second daughter born a month ago.

Heh, call me spoiled. I like my 'leaderboards' on Xbox LIVE; you can jump to the top of the list ('page 1'), or jump to your location.

What happens with old points that were found, but are no longer active? Do they get weeded out, or do they just sit forever?

Sorry, my brain was being curious....

So I wanted to run multiple adapters to wardrive, but the only laptop I have with a serial port is Windows XP. This limits me to NetStumbler, which only supports one adapter at a time. I can run multiple copies of NetStumbler, yes, but only one gets the GPS feed. That's no good, so I went digging ...

So I did my first 'official' multi-card drive this morning - using Windows and netstumbler - WITH GPS ON ALL THREE INSTANCES OF NETSTUMBLER! I found a free virtual serial port emulator that split my COM1 GPS feed virtually on COM7. Set all instances of NS to COM7, and all three had co-ordinates! I ...
