I am free most days. I just started getting into this the last few weeks. I have found a lot of residential AP's that don't even have admin passwords set. I have a power inverter for the car as well.
Since I have a dlink 650+ I have been playing around with boingo as my scanner. Its not too bad. The interface is a little aol-ish but it works better than the inlcluded utility.
I may also have access to a gps unit of some sort, but I don't know whether it can connect to a pc.
On a side note: If I have some open ap's that I can access from my house is there an inexpensive way I can setup my router/ap to bridge one of their networks and connect to my wired lan and cable modem and setup load balancing so I can use both lines.
I have a Dlink 614+, a switch, hub, and 2 dlink 704p's to work with. If I need a higher end router I can configure a cisco router, so if anyone has a spare one and wants to try this out it might be fun.
