Subject: [OS2Wireless] Netstumbler

I don't think any of them work with it as the Cisco card's don't/can't 
report strength or something to that effect.  Most of the cards 
supported report a lot more than the Cisco line of cards do, and the 
chipsets in the other cards (Prism / Orinoco based) are used in most 
cards these days.  Cisco's is proprietary to them.  Linksys and most 
others use the Prism 1/2/2.5/ 3 versions of the chips.  Orinoco, IBM, 
and Dell used the Orinoco (Lucent) chipset.  Netstumbler doesn't work 
with my Cisco 340, but works with every other wifi I have tried, sans 
the ProXim early days cards.

btw, anyone know of a netstumbler-type app for OS/2?
