  WaveStumbler, 802.11 Network Mapper
------------------------------------------------------------------------

DETAILS

WaveStumbler is console based 802.11-network mapper for Linux. It reports
the basic AP stuff like channel, WEP, ESSID, MAC etc. It has support for
Hermes based cards (Compaq, Lucent/Agere, and others).

It consists of a patch against the kernel driver, orinoco.c that makes it
possible to send the scan command to the driver via the
/proc/hermes/ethX/cmds file. The answer is then sent back via a netlink
socket. WaveStumbler listens to this socket and displays the output data
on the console.
