Title: Wellenreiter Scans
Post by: jdev on March 07, 2005, 09:35:06 am
I am using Cacko Zaurus Qtopia Rom 1.21a incase it is any help to anyone.

I was able to get wellenreiter installed on my zaurus.  after some initial problems where it would tell me that it couldnt initiate eth0 because a file or directory could not be found, I finally got wellenreiter to scan.

problem is, is that its not picking up any networks.  I know many of you are asking, well, are you in a wifi area?  yes.  Kismet picks up the 2 networks nearest to me at the office, while wellenreiter, though the title bar shows scanning, does not.

my question is, is it possible that I have wellenreiter configured incorrectly?  could someone share with me the correct config for wellenreiter?  also, does wellenreiter require a certain signal from a wifi network?  the signal on one of the networks is rather low, while one is fair.

tia.

thank you for the tutorial.  I went through, uninstalling libpcap, libopie1 and 2, and wellenreiter.  I attempted to install each package from the tarball, to no avail.  When i first tried to install libpcap, it told me that there may be other dependancies, and I should install them as well.  I tried to forge on and install the libopie libraries, but, to no avail.

the error message I am getting with ipkg is "ipkg says something went wrong. sorry"

this has been happening for a few days now, i will make a different post about that.

in any event.  I connected to the cacko feed and re-installed wellenreiter.  I can run it again with the changes made to the confs and all that, but, still nothing.  It scans, but, does not discover a network, whereas kismet picks up 2 still.

Download Wellenreiter with libs from the zug downloads, then replace the Wellenreiter with the wellenreiter from the cacko feed.
Follow the install instructions from zug downloads, then create a dummy connection. execute Wellenreiter and autodetect your wifi card.
And Thats all.

Easy!!!
It worked for me.
I have a C700 with cacko 1.22 with hotfix
