Re: [PLUG] GUI WiFi Scanner Wanted

The kismet web page shows that there are a couple GUIs available, None appear to have been updated since 2009, but the kismet in Ubuntu us from 2008, so oldies should be goodies.

My Gentoo desktop is firmly chained to an Ethernet cable, but since I've got
several USB WiFi gizmos, I thought I'd like to monitor my Wireless Access
Port, as well as the strengths of those around me.

I've got a nifty little android app the shows all my neighbors' WiFI signals,
and I wanted something similar for my desktop.

I use KDE, and the KDE networking package lets you scan for signals, but
doesn't have an independent application that lets you keep scanning like the
android app. Also, it's really designed to connect to the WiFi, which I don't
care about.

Anybody know of a good GUI program that will let you continuously scan the
WiFi neighborhood?
