Hi Dave,

I have the same setup. Creating a Configuration Profile in the Orinoco
client software with no SSID specified allows me to search for an
available network. I found that when I looked for reasons that
Netstumbler wasn't working. It turned out that the client software
looking for a given SSID would "blind" Netstumbler, so having the
no-SSID profile was the solution. As for the signal strength meter, if
the cute little four-bar S-meter isn't enough, take a look at the Link
Test and Site Monitor functions under the Advanced menu on the Client
Manager software.

I'm running Win2000 with an Orinoco gold WiFi card; and I loathe and
detest the client software - no wildcard searching when I'm looking for
a new network, no relative strength meter etc, etc...
