can we get the source code of wireless drivers or firmware. can u send me any links which tells about how to change this code so as to make it as wireless analyzer and report signal strength... i am very much interested in doing that... --sudha

The hardware at each node calculates and reports the RSSI or signal strength of the frames it receives. -Alternatively if you have got the source code for the Mobile units wireless driver/firmware, you can modify the drivers to sync up in time (Network time server)and report RSSI instantaneously to a log. Hope this helps. --Surya Prashant Rao --- sudha rani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I got the solution.using network analyzer like > "commviewforwifi" you can find the signal strength > from all the other nodes with out any transferring > of > files. this network analyzers captures the packets > on > all the channels and report the signal strength it > is > perceiveing from all the other nodes. > > > --- Harshal Chhaya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > --------------------------------- > sudha rani wrote: > > what i mean is from each node i should be able to > measure the strength of the > > signal from all the other nodes.
