I use it all the time and it works great for me. I do in fact use wifi-radar, and find it is one of the better wifi programs. (I run Fedora-8, and wifi-radar is available with "yum install wifi-radar", as you suggest.) I think wifi-radar and "iwlist eth1 scan" (substitute for eth1) are sort of complementary; one works with some wifi devices where the other does not. But if there is no connection, neither is much use at solving the problem. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
