    I'm surprised no-one has mentioned void11.

    This tool works with prism2 cards and injects a spoofed deauthentication
    message from the AP to the client. This forces the client to reconnect. If
    you have 2 cards or 2 laptops, you can deauthenticate with one and listen for
    the SSID with kismet on another.
