NetStumbler is great for finding the Channel, but only works on hermes cards.

The Cisco Aironet 340/350 is similiar to the Prism 2 but not the same.

The Lucent Orinoco card is NOT a Prism 2 card. (It's Lucent's own chipset (hermes).

AirSnort and AirSniff will now work with Aironet Orinoco and Prism 2 cards.

To recover the WEP key set, passively capture 110meg to 1 gig of traffic.
