Day 227: Wardriving!

I had to download the source for SWScanner because the package in the default Ubuntu install doesn't work. After adding a few development libraries (Ubuntu ships with Gnome, and SWScanner is made for KDE), I got it running.

 

I took my son to hold the laptop and we headed out, just around the neighbourhood a little. Just to find out what was out there. We picked up 70 wireless devices. I also found out that the hospital has a public access point.

 

Update: I just found the serial cable to my GPS. I'll start mapping these out soon.
