If you don't know what this app is, take a look here: http://kismac.binaervarianz.de/about.php

For some reason it's not yet been added to the site officially, but r75 adds a new feature that many people have been waiting a long time for, passive scanning with an Airport Extreme card.

You'll need to be running 10.4.3, and while you're scanning, you can't be connected to a network as you can in Active mode, but other than that, it's worked fine for me.

Worked quite well for me, the driver takes a few seconds to kick in once you start scanning and supply your password.

Once up and running though, it works just as good as any other passive device I've used.

Though personally, my set-up is to use a USB Prism II device for passive scanning, then use the in-built Airport Extreme to connect (during which time, the Prism II keeps scanning). It's still nice for people who don't want to buy another wireless device for their machine.
 
D-Link DWL-122, I think it's called.

Anything with a Prism2 chipset should work fine though.
 
yeah, but its often hard tracking down which chipset powers a particular model

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
