It's in 4.7 with prism2 only. btw, somebody managed to break my port (it won't compile) of wscan from 4.6 to 4.7. This was done by mucking with the wicache # stuff I believe. Although given wicontrol -L working with prism2, I might as well make a wscan 2.0 when I can get around to it. It would be nice at some point to know why certain Lucent/Orinoco card firmware CAN support sending a probe and getting back N APs, and (possibly?) some cannot? Anybody have any clues on that, or what firmware can do it, and what can't?
