[MLB-WIRELESS] Netstumbler problems?

Hello,

Recently I hade the need to stumble some AP's from my roof.  I dragged the laptop etc up to the peak and connected my enterasys card to the pigtail and dish.

I got nothing.  Even using my 25dbi dish pointed to Node GMI the laptop could see nothing? (checking my Dlink 900ap+'s site survey showed around 7 AP's "seeable" from the same antenna).

Bringing it down to the "shack" I turned on both my shack AP's (Minitar and SVEC) but could only stumble the AP that I was associated with, ie, either the SVEC or the Minitar but never scan and stumble both at the same time?

I re installed netstumbler 0.3.3 (0.4 cause lockups on my old laptop) and even went as far as re-installing the enterasys driver.

The card works as I can surf the net from it but this stumbling problem has me beat?  It did work "last" time I tried.

Any ideas?

Regards

Mark
