Aopen Wireless Card

#1 Post by jronald » Mon Dec 15, 2008 7:05 pm

I got hold of an Aopen Wireless card out of an Everecks laptop
As installed it and it threw both 1802 and the 01CO9 code (or whatever the codes were). Went to the Wiki and got the Linux hack and ran both of them, it worked perfectly

Here is the weird part.
I have 4 WAPS running on my network
Running Lynksys, Netgear, 2-Wire, Intel 2200BG and BroadCom as well as the Aopen card on several laptops

All of them only pick up my 4 WAPs
Except the the 2-Wire, which picks up my 4 and the neighbors, occasionally the other neighbors so 5 normal, and 6 sometimes
The Aopen picks up 7, all of them strong enough to surf very quickly. Dont have a clue who elses Im looking at now.

Go figure!

Sounds like a bit of war-driving is in order!
