The idea of having someone intentionally cracking my router, now at least 4 times .... it doesn't seem like a white hat to me. N.B. I am very grateful for the work of Île Sans Fil ( et Zap ) and support the concept of open wifi hotspots ( ignoring the side effects of the financial allocation in the security domain ) *yes I see the blackhat security threat 8} > While your not able to sniff the wireless traffic directly, you could > also put a bridge between your router and modem and list there, > depending on your setup. Ah yes, wise, I thought of that, but I may just buy a new router before I get up the effort. Thanks to David and the other for your suggestions Muchos Thank yous Hro _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
