I am totally new to this and the windows-provided applet. I don't neccesarily care about GPS since I haven't finished building my unit yet, but it might be nice to generate a few waypoints for the access points I discover.
I keep forgetting it doesn't update and automatically connect, and i'll wind up trying to connect and authenticate with a network next to my house, and I'm already a mile or two away. by the time I click refresh, I'm getting on the exit, and I realize there are other cars on the road. So far i've managed to get about 20 seconds of online time while my car was moving. rawr.
anything simple and lightweight like that? I do have ethereal and a few other apps for cracking WEP keys and the like, but when I just want to surf with the 'nets that i've already got... it'd be nice to have a low-overhead program to boot up.
Thanks - if anyone wants plans for a gps unit, I will probbably post a DIY page in about a month. Even has a color screen that was orig. used for the Nokia brick phones. woohoo! color!

and if you don't have time to reply... don't. Not like I'm lurking and drooling over my keyboard waiting for a reply.
I just want continuous access... like going between two cell towers. Doesn't sound like too much to ask.

@OrionBlade...I highly recommend you rethink the nature and content of future posts.
