I have added to Roman Festchook's AP Utils at http://ap-utils.polesye.net .  My Linux box now successfully monitors 6 Linksys (version 2.1) AP's in client mode gathering signal strength and quality for MRTG.  I am finishing up the source code and will be sending it to Roman where it may be included in upcoming release.  In the meantime feel free to e-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I will be happy to share the code and MRTG config file.  Keep in mind however the program only works on Linux using version 2.1 of Linksys AP's in client mode attaching to another access point in AP mode.  Also it should be known by gathering signal strength and quality you reset the wireless and Ethernet stats.  This is ok if all you care about is the delta between reads - the only thing you lose are the beacon broadcasts.
