Title: Wellenreiter Works On Sl6000 - But Slow Detection
Post by: Guest on November 24, 2004, 10:03:04 am

wellenreiter works on the stock sharp rom w/ my sl 6000. the only problem is that it detects AP's much slower than kismet does. im using the default prism2 drivers. could this be the problem? if so, i'd be able to install the hostap drivers, correct? are there any instructions for doing so?

i'm not sure if wellenreiter works slower than kismet or not, so i have no idea if my current wifi driver is the problem. thanks for any help.

hostap doesn't work with USB wifi cards like in the SL6000  
For now you're stuck with wlan-ng on tosa.

but does wellenreiter normally not detect AP's as fast as kismet? even if it doesn't, that would be fine because i really like that it can detect other nodes/ap's. so i'd need to get a wifi CF card in order to use hermes/orinocco or hostap drivers?

Wellenreiter shouldn't detect systems slower than kismet. Maybe kismet has a faster channel hopping sequence or anything which would explain the difference.

Wellenreiter tells me I'm not running it as root, but I have the "run as root" box checked.  Anyone else see that?

Yes, but I don't believe that the functionality of the application is affected. Wellenreiter detected a network just fine last night in a test even with that message.

Yeah, it still detects, but "sniffer, configure, intrusion" is greyed out, and not selectable.

I get this too.  They were not greyed out when I had oz installed, so something with this version is messed up.  I'd like to look at the config but can't find it.

They are also greyed out on OZ/Opie 3.5.3. I've yet to find a workaround.

Anyone out there have a suggestion?
