For wireless sniffing wouldn't you be better off with the latest libpcap, as
that supports wireless traffic analysis?

Can you do this with a Cisco 340?  Or is it the case that as the Cisco 340
doesn't support WEP you can sniff it, but you can't join the network once
you've cracked the encryption?

This isn't really a question for here but thought I'd ask while I was
emailing the list, please reply to me directly.  I'd like to temporarily
build and load the Cisco drivers for my 340 card, so I can use the Cisco
utilities to load new firmware, before reverting to the drivers that come
with the kernel.  Does anyone have an easy way of doing this that they can
explain to me?

Thanks.
