--MGYHOYXEY6WxJCY8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, so I'll be at the airport for a good few hours tomorrow so I think I'm going to use Boingo or something like that to get online. Obviously FreeBSD or Linux aren't officially supported. But I guess all I need is a tool to scan for SSIDs. Right now I can do `wicontrol -L` as root and I think it detects APs. I also tried dstumbler when it was mentioned on this list last week, but for some reason when I tried it today, like with `sudo dstumbler wi0`, it just crashes my laptop. I was playing with ifconfig and wicontrol and it crashed my laptop also. so i guess my question is, has anybody used one of those public Wi-Fi netwo= rk before here? and anybody else having problems with dstumbler with wi0 (i ha= ve a linksys wpc11 pc card)... ?? I think wi should detects APs and choose one for me, coz when I first setup my laptop, I didn't even have to specify an SSID and it just picked it up... thanks! /ayn --=20 andrew y ng <ayn@andrewng.com> http://andrewng.com gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 9BFC594C fingerprint : 46a1 29ff 893a 0381 dc81 1e1e bed8 e882 9bfc 594c=20 --MGYHOYXEY6WxJCY8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAj4Ht60ACgkQvtjogpv8WUxttACfez3LrBAdHIWHmIYXeKB4KNTE wAcAoKbjmvsZ/2qEIIGKS45az4GrsY+b =xDZa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --MGYHOYXEY6WxJCY8-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
