Kismit runs, but doesn\'t get signals

[MightyPez]

I just grabbed a Zaurus SL-5500 and a Symbol CF wi-fi card, and so far I love them. Just one issue, however.

When I installed kismit and then the qtopia GUi for kismit, I can launch the program and activate the card, but no signal comes up. I can connect just fine to my wireless network using the network utility, but kismit refuses to find anything.

I tried installing with add/remove and using the command line, the same results each time. I briefly checked kismit.conf, but didn\'t have a really close look.

I\'m using the retail Sharp 3.10 ROM and a 64mb SD card. Each time I install kismit to the internal memory.

Are you starting the Kismet-server app first or are you simply launching the Kismet-GUI by itself?

I suggest giving a closer look at the conf and making sure the kismet hopper / server is started. It may be listen on another channel then your ap. If you enable the channel hopper it should work

Symbol spectrum24 wont work in promiscous mode on standard rom.

Prism 2 cards work ok though with standard rom & kismet + kismet-ui.

Tried that, still no dice.

I was afraid of that. Oh well, this gives me the chance to install OpenZaurus then.

Use Wellenreiter with OZ instead of Kismet, you will save yourself a lot of frustration getting it to work.

I may have to. It looked like a good program.
