ZD1211 Status dr Since people have been asking, as of this posting, Kismet does not support the ZD1211, and heres why: Due to the firmware/drivers, there is a known flaw that leads to it throwing garbage data, and a lot of it, into the packet stream when there are channel hops or data frames. As soon as this gets fixed, Kismet will have a standard capture type for the ZDs. In the meantime, if you absolutely insist, you can try by using the prism54g capture source, since it uses the same configuration methods. Ususally I discourage this, and I still do, since using the wrong cap source is a good way to confuse Kismet and get a lot of bunk errors and problems.
