A Good use for those WINwifi's
Consider this... an 802.11b card cant be used to pull direct 2.4ghz signals, because the whole platform/standard is built into chips on the card... meaning there is not way around the structure of packets and communications the card uses.
(my take on what ive read)
Imagine that maybe these special chips will be pulled and the packet building and such will be given over to software drivers/etc... effectivelly givign us a 2.4ghz radio that can be controlled by software...
get a Spread Spectrum program that lets you try and pick up Cordless phone conversations... pickup the X10 camera's... hell even any future encrypted units would be effectively sniffable if not at first crackable...
As for the X10... doesnt anyone knwo if the channel switching is controlable by software? My assumtion is still that it is a physical switch and cnnot be 'scanned' in the multiview type software...
