I am not 100% what netstumbler is programmed in. But, I've been trying to use the WMI and NDIS to get all my information. WMI Administration Tool by Microsoft is a great product. It's a must for programming with WMI. Anyways, the only way that I've been able to find out to "sniff" wireless AP's is by issuing InstanceOf after connecting to the WMEB root. It can detect the first one just fine, no problems.. but when there are multiple items, it seems to just display garbaged ascii.
BTW I am using For Each Item command, so I would think it would display every incoming AP that goes through the WMI.
I really want to create an application like NetStumbler with Visual Basic 6 (I know it can be done) without needing to use driver wrapping. Hopefully, there is a simple fix for the WMI issue. Has anyone come across something like this?
Thanks,
