Site Survey
By choosing the
Site Survey
option in any of the two modes, you can scan all the channels
in order to find all the access points within the range of your card. In Figure 4-4, the
card can see four access points. The list includes information about the BSSID and
SSID of the access point(s), the signal strength, the channel where the access point(s)
operates, and whether or not WEP encryption is used. In order to update this list, press
the “Rescan” button. If you want to associate with any of the access point(s) listed, double
click on your choice (on the BSSID field), and the system will take you back to the
Monitor
screen showing you the parameters of the connection newly established.
