<PerfDave> Hmm, WEP now seems to be working.
<PerfDave> But for some reason, the network only works in Ad-Hoc mode; the minute I put the Linux box into "Master" mode and the Windows card to "Infrastructure", everything stops working. It's worked with a Linux laptop in "Managed" and "Auto" :/
<PerfDave> I suspect these wifi card drivers may be **** ;/
<bucky> heya SteveWrightNZ
<bucky> A man was arrested on charges of stealing a charter jet and taking it on a 350-mile joy ride from Florida to Georgia
<bucky> The incident "appears to be a joy ride."
<bucky> Investigators said they made the arrest after interviewing five people who said they were on the 10-p***enger, $7 million Cessna Citation 7 when Wolcott flew it.
<J4k3> hell yeah
<J4k3> now thats pimp
<bucky> lol
<J4k3> except I'da flown south
<J4k3> kept it low
<J4k3> and sold it somewhere in south america
<bucky> p***engers and all
<J4k3> hell yeah ;)
<rweait> I'm trying to get nocatsplash to work on a wrt54gs (OpenWRT)
<rweait> splashd is running
<rweait> but does not capture new clients when they connect
<J4k3> try #openwrt
<J4k3> lots more experience in there
<rweait> Thanks J4k3
<hjohnson> well, we're sitting at 24.51VDC with a dead cell
<SteveWrightNZ> thats not too bad
<SteveWrightNZ> u got two batts in parallel ?
<hjohnson> I'm not sure what situation he's running right now
<hjohnson> but he told me that the dead cell is in the system
<bucky> hi SteveWrightNZ !
<SteveWrightNZ> heya bucky dood
<bucky> SteveWrightNZ, did you see about that guy who took that cessena citation for a joy ride?
<SteveWrightNZ> woah, no
<SteveWrightNZ> wot a ****
<SteveWrightNZ> did he crash it ?
<bucky> with five p***engers on board..
<bucky> no
<SteveWrightNZ> fark
<bucky> http://www.officer.com/article/article.jsp?siteSection=7&id=26383

<SteveWrightNZ> meh, work
<Faithful> I got the old polarization question again... which is which and what for which?
<hjohnson> what polarization question is that?
<MarkK> hey, how'd your solar/wind powered project work out?
<MarkK> What did you end up doing?
<dersteer> hjohnson: sorry to hear about the dead batteries :(
<hjohnson> MarkK: they bought a Honda EU2000i and a 25A 24VDC charger
<hjohnson> but we've got a dead cell in one of the batteries
<MarkK> ahhhh
<MarkK> that would explain a lot
<hjohnson> which is why we're sitting at 24.47VDC right now
<MarkK> hmmm
<MarkK> so you're going to change batteries, right?
<hjohnson> we did
<MarkK> good
<hjohnson> but we've lost one cell in one battery, which has seriously hurt our voltage
<hjohnson> (it's failed short)
<MarkK> right
<MarkK> probably from repeated running dead or nearly so
<hjohnson> so we're probalby gonna have to replace a battery.
<MarkK> sulfation
<hjohnson> yeah.
<hjohnson> if it had been me, I would have gone with surette 6V floodeds
<hjohnson> but that's just me.. those things are supposed to be virtually indestructable.
<hjohnson> add a hydro-cap to each cell, and your maintennace is significantly reduced
<MarkK> there's some decent capacity Interstate batteries
<MarkK> almost 400 ah @ 12V for around 180 each
<hjohnson> interstate, from what I've seen, is mostly automotive.
<MarkK> no
<MarkK> they have a huge variety
<J4k3> hello Mark
<hjohnson> the surettes have huge lead grid electrodes
<J4k3> err, scrollback
<hjohnson> they're big, heavy, and built like tanks
<MarkK> if you want cheap, yo ucan get the same from golf cart batteries
<MarkK> well made
<MarkK> tolerant of abusse
<MarkK> lots of acid capacity
<hjohnson> well, we'll replace the one dead battery out of the 4 with the same make/model
<MarkK> oh ok
<MarkK> you have 2 series in parallel?
<hjohnson> yeah
<MarkK> oh, that'll really kill the others
<hjohnson> yeah
<MarkK> as one bank tries to charge the other
<hjohnson> well, I tried to sugest leaving the good bank totally unconnected temporarily but they didn't listen to me.
<MarkK> leave the good bank in place and disconnect the bad
<hjohnson> that's what I would have done, but it's not my calll.
<hjohnson> I wasn't there.
<hjohnson> if they wanted to kill the batts, this is a good way to do it, but oh well
<MarkK> heh, yeah
<Xinfo> hello
<Xinfo> did someone tried this http://www.cantenna.com/ or know if the laptop card is compatible with linux ?
<synackuator> which card
<synackuator> if that cable is mmcx it can plug into a number of prism / atheros cards
<Xinfo> http://wirelessgardenstore.com/detail.aspx?ID=296
<Xinfo> this one
<synackuator> the orinoco's definitely, not sure about the buffalo one though
<synackuator> good resource: http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz
<synackuator> looks like the ones listed under buffalo are broadcom chipsets, which aren't that great for linux imho
<Xinfo> i am talking about the standard one wich is Manufacturer: Wireless Garden
<Xinfo> the one in the picture
<Xinfo> i want a pcmcia card wich i can plug an external antenna for it
<Xinfo> like the one in the picture
<synackuator> i don't see where you can buy the actual one in the picture, not sure what it is
<Xinfo> check here http://shop.netstumbler.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=30
<synackuator> good cards w/ mmcx would be some SMCs, Senao, Orinoco, a couple netgears, and the aironet 350
<Xinfo> but the problem is as i said i want a pcmcia card wich i can plug an external antenna/cantenna
<synackuator> pick one of the ones listed on that page you just linked...
<synackuator> orinoco gold B cards are great all around cards because of mmcx and receive sensitivity...
<synackuator> it was my first wardriver
<Xinfo> but can i add external antenna to it ?
<dragorn> Orinoco B cards aren't MMCX.
<dragorn> They're MCX.
<dragorn> It's a different jack. They're not interchangeable.
<dragorn> Cisco, senao, aironet are mmcx. SMC 200mW cards are RP-MMCX, which is another variant and also not interchangeable.
<dragorn> err. They're MC, not MCX, apologies. Orinoco 11b cards are MC.
<Xinfo> :)
<Xinfo> http://wirelessgardenstore.com/detail.aspx?ID=296 this one looks great just tellme that it can be run under linux and i'll take it now
<synackuator> uhh let me look at my gold card
<synackuator> i thought it was mmcx
<synackuator> hrm
<synackuator> it looks the same as my smc mmcx...
<synackuator> Xinfo: which card???
<Xinfo> this card http://wirelessgardenstore.com/detail.aspx?ID=296
<dragorn> Orinoco is most definitely not mmcx
<dragorn> they're both tiny little connectors
<dragorn> but they're different
<dragorn> much to the woe of people ordering parts
<synackuator> hold up
<dragorn> and if you have a smc eliteconnect, it's not mmcx either, it's rp-mmcx, also to the woe of people ordering parts
<synackuator> ur right it doesn't fit
<synackuator> smc 2532w-b 200mW
<dragorn> indeed I am. :P
<synackuator> like everyone calls the smc cards mmcx
<dragorn> they're not
<synackuator> what happens when i try my rpmmcx in a buddies aironet 350 mmcx?
<dragorn> it won't fit
<dragorn> or you'll bend a pin
<synackuator> this things so damn small i can't see the pin
<dragorn> either way if you manage to wedge it in you'll get a crap connection and risk damaging either the antenna connector or the card itself
<synackuator> do you have one of them senao's with the mini antenna?
<dragorn> yes. It's not a mini antenna, really, just 2 jacks
<dragorn> if I recall theres no emitter in there
<synackuator> well it's got the little 2 inch guy what's the deal there
<synackuator> like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Senao-Wireless-Laptop-Card-WiFi-PCMCIA-Antenna-Jacks_W0QQitemZ5817968271QQcategoryZ45000QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
<dragorn> Oh. That's just an omni stuck on one of the antenna jacks
<Xinfo> what about this one http://www.buffalotech.com/products/product-detail.php?productid=110&categoryid=7#
