Right, that's what the manual page says. However, this doesn't look like the list of all APs available: $ wicontrol -i ndis0 -L NIC serial number: [ ] Station name: [ omni.langworth.com ] SSID for IBSS creation: [ Unit 21 ] Current netname (SSID): [ Unit 21 ] Desired netname (SSID): [ Unit 21 ] Current BSSID: [ 00:00:00:00:00:00 ] Channel list: [ 3fff ] IBSS channel: [ 1 ] ... WEP encryption: [ Off ] TX encryption key: [ 1 ] Encryption keys: [ ][ ][ ][ ] Available APs: wicontrol: SIOCSWAVELAN: Operation not permitted Instead, it looks like the AP that I'm conencted to, but this sure doesn't: $ wicontrol -i ndis0 -l 8 stations: ap[0]: netname (SSID): [ linksys ] BSSID: [ 00:06:25:e8:1c:13 ] Channel: [ 1 ] Quality/Signal/Noise [signal]: [ 80 / 80 / 0 ] [dBm]: [ 80 / -69 / -149 ] BSS Beacon Interval [msec]: [ 0 ] Capinfo: [ ] DataRate [Mbps]: [ 11 ] ... ap[7]: netname (SSID): [ Unit 19 ] BSSID: [ 00:0f:66:b9:6e:21 ] Channel: [ 6 ] Quality/Signal/Noise [signal]: [ 65 / 65 / 0 ] [dBm]: [ 65 / -84 / -149 ] BSS Beacon Interval [msec]: [ 0 ] Capinfo: [ WEP ] -- Ian Langworth Project Guerrilla Northeastern University College of Computer and Information Science
