Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw +monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic. + +Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting +standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden +networks, and infering the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data traffic. + +Known supported cards: Atheros, Prism2, WSP100, Drone, wtapfile, pcapfile. +Kismet also supports the radiotap headers and should work with current FreeBSD +systems. + +WWW: http://www.kismetwireless.net/ |
