Additional Export Options

I was wondering if you could add an export option that would include whether or not WEP is turned on or off? That would be useful info when pushing the results to a mapping program (could add that to the tag).

WEP Flag

That information is already there in the summary output.

In the Flags field, if the 3rd character is 1, then WEP is enabled.
0011.. WEP is enabled
0001.. WEP is disabled

hmmm... the FAQ means something diffrent:

· What does the Flag field mean?

The flag field contains the 802.11 capability information in hexadecimal. It's documented in section 7.3.1.4 of the 802.11b spec. To save you having to go and look, the bits are:
0001 ESS ("Infrastructure")
0002 IBSS ("Ad-Hoc")
0004 CF-Pollable
0008 CF-Poll Request
0010 Privacy ("WEP")
0020 Short Preamble
0040 PBCC
0080 Channel Agility
FF00 Reserved
