[kismac] Re: Another 004d user with freezes

Well, I tried the Bronze card in my Wallstreet and it froze as before.  
I also tried the Silver card in the Ti, and it worked beautifully.  I 
guess it has something to do with the Wallstreet.  What is different 
between the two?  Hmmm... I'm running a G4 in both of them, because I'm 
using a Sonnet upgrade card in the Wallstreet.  I had the 
WirelessDriver installed on the Wallstreet, but I did a kextunload on 
it successfully before trying KisMAC.  The Ti has in addition to the 
PCMCIA card, an Airport card, and it was being used for networking.  I 
had also tried moving the WirelessDriver.kext to 
WirelessDriver.kext.old so it wouldn't load at all at startup and 
restarted.  That didn't help.

I have a suggestion for another helpful feature.  Since the monitor 
mode doesn't have error correction we often get errors.  I use KisMAC 
to try and trouble-shoot my wireless connection to school (several 
kilometers away).  The max signal strength number gets messed up soon 
after starting to listen by what I'm sure is a bogus number.  Could you 
supply an average number as well as the max?  This would be more 
accurate for my type of work, and I'm sure it would be helpful to 
others.

I would also like to second the request for the sticky SSID.  I don't 
know if that has been put in yet, or not, because I didn't listen long 
enough to see the SSID come and go this time, but I would certainly 
like that, since the access points I use don't broadcast their ID's 
often.

Thanks for working on this!  It has been quite helpful, once I got it 
going on the Ti.

Thanks!

Rob
