Wardriving in a screenplay

[amazingldy]

I am taking a class in screenwriting and want to include several scenes where some students go wardriving. I need a general description of what appears on the laptop screen when you wardrive and how the transmissions appear. Anybody want to take a stab at it?

In my story I wanted to have the laptop with a speech synthesizer and read the wireless transmissions as they are encountered. Would a detected transmission be something like XDFIE*(WNG:DLKJS(E:MLJD jazzlady:great,how r u? bart998: gonna watch CSI tonight? ADJF@#OP%I!@OP%J.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Kismet and NetStumbler are two of the most commonly used pieces of software for wardriving on a PC:

Let me know if you have any more questions Whatever you do please do not depict wardriving as anything other than "The benign act of locating and logging wireless access points while in motion"
