Aaww, here it goes!

Things I would like to see in future versions of NetStumbler:

Support for multiple cards

Ability to select which channels/bands the cards scan from within NS

A button to start/stop the WZC service.
Umm doesnt this functionality exist already? NS starts and stops it when it launches if the check box is selected in prefs. My solution is to DISABLE it from starting to begin with (ever) under Services. If you are REALLY LAZY make a shortcut on the desktop to "%SystemRoot%\system32\services.msc" /s

Support for the latest Agere Orinoco drivers (windows_drivers_sr02-2.3).

Passthrough for GPS to another virtual port.
If your application doesnt support GPSd complain to them. Alternitively there are 2 comercial applications each about $99 that do it, and one free one called XPort that I saw on mp3car.com.

External OUI list so we could update the vender database.

Fix of the Orinoco Classic crashing (Good luck)

I'd really like to see full support for intersil/prisim cards but I know that is more a problem with them and not Marius.

The Ediitable OUI would be a god send, It is the most anoying thing about the current version.

Another thing would be the ability to save all data reguarding all signals so the preatty signal strenth charts could be recreated in netstumbler from a loaded file (yes this would need a disclaimer for file size increase) but you don't have to use it and with 120G drives available who really cares?

The last thing and it goes along with the with some people have for editable prefs (netstumbler needs INI files!) would be a way to save configurations. for example if you are autosaving, a way to set it to a faster time than 5 minutes (you can drive a long way in 5 minutes) Does NS do a full file write then or just an append of new data? for my uses every 30 seconds would be about right.

After I get done moving, I'll be able to donate, or maybe even buy him (Marius) a toy. I can deffinately send him one of my cards to test with if he is still looking for those. its a Senao rebadged for SonicWall (11b 200mw card), and is Intersil chipseted.
