RE: [Netstumbler] Moderators Note

["Christian Flickinger" <spoon@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hehehe. Netstumbler is a wireless network discovery tool written by Marius
Milner. The software sends out a (in laymens term) 'call' and waits for any
near by access points to respond to the call and obtains basic, publicly
available information from the device (SSID, wep status, MAC ->
Manufactuerererer, etc). Using the GPS functionality you can then plot the
wireless access point coverage and security ratio etc. For more information,
visit www.netstumbler.com, and also take a look at www.michiganwireless.org

It is my belief that it is some kind of software. I could be wrong, though.
