[MLB-WIRELESS] Cabletron Cards - Laptop - Debian - Range

[James Robertson]

I noticed that my laptop+enterasys card with nothing hooked up to it could 
pick up 7 or 8 AP's or whatever running Kismet, when left sitting on my 
desk for 8 hours or so.

Running netstumbler under Win98SE, picked up nothing.
