A linux wireless management client by Don Park <donp@personaltelco.net>

Purpose AP Radar is a Linux/GTK+ based graphical netstumbler and wireless profile manager. This project makes use of the version 14 wireless extensions in linux 2.4.20 and 2.6 to provide access point scanning capabilities for most models of wireless cards. It is meant to replace the manual process of running iwconfig and dhclient. It makes reconfiguring for different APs quick and easy. AP Radar was first introduced as a talk on June 26th 2002 at a Personal Telco Project meeting in Portland Oregon. Media Screenshot taken 5-Jul-2004 inside a home in Portland, Or. Version 0.52 is the latest release Slides from the introduction talk in on-line HTML or OpenOffice Presenter format DIVX video of the presentation. avi file. 28MB.

Download / Compile To compile from source you need * a 2.6 kernel or a 2.4.20 or newer kernel * gtk+ 2.4 header files/static libs (libgtk+2.4_1-devel RPM, libgtk-2.0-dev debian) * gtkmm 2.4 header files/static libs (libgtkmm2.4_1-devel RPM, libgtkmm-2.4-dev debian) * libiw v27 header files/static libs (libiw27-devel RPM) Download the source tarball from the Sourceforge File List darcs users can get the source from the read-only darcs repository with: darcs get http://apradar.sourceforge.net/darcs/apradar Here is a quick compatibility test: run 'iwlist eth1 scanning', if that works, ap radar should work too. ToDo Next release: "When its ready" -- ID Software todo: root/user split - dbus daemon better dhcp client control update all fields after a scan (only signal strength is updated) associate by BSSID, for when two APs have the same ESSID.
