Description:

Wellenreiter is a gtkperl program that makes the discovery and auditing
of 802.11b wireless networks much easier. It has an embedded statistics
engine for common parameters provided by wireless drivers which enables
you to gather details about the consistency, signal strength, etc. of
the network. For discovery of accesspoints / networks / ad-hoc cards,
Wellenreiter has an amazingly easy scanner window, which searches for
any accesspoint within range of the scanning device. It detects and
differentiates essid broadcasting and non-broadcasting wireless networks
in every channel, doing frequency switching automatically. The
manufacturer is detected by the device's MAC address. WEP detection is
also implemented, and Wellenreiter detects and handles whenever the
beacon broadcasting machine is a true accesspoint or an AD-Hoc mode
station. Detecting essid's of non-broadcasting networks is possible and
gps support is also built in. Also a uniq essid bruteforcer is included now.
