Subject:no power or noise signal level reported
Date:23:16:15 25/09/2004

I have kismet running on my WRT54G V2 using Satori4.0 firmware, but the drone is not reporting power levels or noise back to the sever. How do I solve this? Can the kismet_drone.conf file be edited to send power signal levels to servers?


> It works great and WRT54G remains operational, i.e. you still can use it to provide wireless connectivity. Here is the short version of what you need to do.
>
> 1. Get WRT54G firmware v1.30.7
> 2. Install Wrt54g_tools, make sure that you can get shell and copy files to the router (http://cj.colliertech.org/swn/)
> 3. Compile and install Kismet on your workstation
> 4. Crosscompile kismet_drone for mipsel.
> 5. Create dummy kismet_monitor script consisting of one line:
> #!/bin/sh
> Edit kismet_drone.conf appropriately. You are going to use generic capture and allow logins from your local network:
> source=generic,eth2,Kismet
> allowedhosts=192.168.1.0/24
> 6. Copy kismet_drone, edited kismet_drone.conf and the dummy kismet_monitor to your WRT54G box.
> 7. Login to your WRT54G. Put wireless interface in monitor mode and start kismet_drone
> 8. Configure kismet_server on your local workstation to use drone source and launch kismet_server
> source=drone,192.168.1.1:3501,drone
> enablesources=drone
> 9. Launch kismet_client and enjoy the awesome power of Kismet :-)
