Netstumbler shop and the Mobile Netstumbler Kit

SiliconAddict · 06-02-2003

Excuse the newbie question. I already did a search on this and didn't find any relevant info.

The Mobile Netstumbler Kit
Offered here on netstumblers site says it contains the following

Quote:

The Mobile WLAN Stumbler Kit is an ideal kit for sniffing access points! It contains a 5 dBi magnetic mount antenna and pigtail adapter.

Can I assume since this kit doesn't come with a WIFI card it also doesn't provide a pigtail just the interface "too" the pigtail. Correct?

Reason for the questions?
Going on a trip out of town this weekend. To date I've been stumbling without a antenna (You guessed as much right?

)
I want to get my antenna up before I head out and didn't want to end up buying a second Pigtail adapter for my Orinoco Gold if one is provided in the "kit"

Any help you guys can provide in clearing this up would be appreciated.

You should be able to specify the type of and length of pigtail needed. (if any )

Read the description you quoted, then look at the picture.

Includes:
Antenna w/10' cable
A pigtail

No card.

I'm not sure what you meant by "interface too <sic> the pigtail." Did you mean the N connector? Two are there. One on the cable, one on the pigtail.

I figured as much but if you look at the desc of the 2 kits with and without the WIFI card one says pigtail adapter and once says pigtail. Nitpicking over words yes, but I wasn't sure it wasn't just talking about the N connector. Just wanted confirmation that I was getting everything I needed right there.

Thanks.
