Subject:Ubuntu Linux Kismet Configuration Files - Capture Sources
Date:04:43:40 27/01/2008

I have a very specific question to ask about Kismet configuration. I cannot figure out what line to put in the capture sources line.

Using the Kismet documentation I've found I need the following parameters: 'source=type,interface,name[,channel]'

I have a Linksys WMP54G pci adapter

Using iwconfig I determined that the interface would be - wlan0

I know that the Linksys card uses a RALINK chipset. I thought when I bought this that it would be compatible, but according to the Kismet website there are more than one version of this card and this chip.

02:01.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI

Under Kismet Capture Sources Documentation i found several Ralink drivers that were supported, however my RAlink was different then there drivers.

I am so confused, can anyone help me sort this out?
