The information is somewhat incomplete/incorrect as well. Persons interested in finding rogue AP's would be much better off with a tool such as kismet that already identifies model/make of access points based on various datapoints (including the types you posted), as well as the ability to determine in where the AP is (pysically) with the use of a GPS unit. As a side benefit, it can make pretty maps. http://www.poptix.net/thehills.jpg > John -- Matthew S. Hallacy FUBAR, LART, BOFH Certified http://www.poptix.net GPG public key 0x01938203
