AirFart: Who dealt it?

-=-=-=-
What is AirFart?

AirFart is a wireless tool created to detect wireless devices, calculate 
their signal strengths, and present them to the user in an easy-to-understand 
fashion. It is written in C/C++ with a GTK front end. Airfart supports all 
wireless network cards supported by the linux-wlan-ng Prism2 driver that 
provide hardware signal strength information in the "raw signal" format 
(ssi_type 3). Airfart implements a modular n-tier architecture with the 
data collection at the bottom tier and a graphical user interface at the top.

Release notes:

Evan McNabb

Version .2     7 March 2003
Dave Smith

For Prism3 chipset devives, the linux-wlan-ng drivers presents their 
signal strengths incorrectly. If you are using one of these devices
(like the Linksys WPC11 v3.0), then your signal strengths will show
up smaller in the Airfart display than they really are. Multiply the
Airfart values by about 2.5 to get the real values. Ie, 20% is really
50%.
