Or, simply look through the output of: /sbin/iwlist wlan0 scan There's legit reasons for that. e.g. To figure out which channel is probably best for you to use, when you're surrounded by other wireless users that might cause inteference. It's a pity that the bar graphs that NetworkManager shows you for different access points doesn't also tell you what channel they use. My access point is supposed to have an auto scanning feature to pick the best free channel. It doesn't, it picks the worst... -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.9-73.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
