Yeah, I can't get NetStumbler to work on my iPaq.
I also looked at Airsnort but it doesn't support my laptop wireless.

I agree totally with Bytemark. Ditch the wireless, and disable it in the router. And please change the admin password for your router as well. ZDnet, Cnet, etc all report far to many security problems with wireless networking. It may be all the buzz, but, if you are a home user, like myself, the depth of security you need to go to for wireless is no fun at all.
My system is wired from router to a network hub, then wired out to the system from there. My router also has port scan reporting, so it tells me if someone is trying to knock on my door. With the internal IP tables firewalling, and all incoming ports blocked, I am as secure as a home user can be, for the time being at least.
Shorty
hide the ssid and and use wpa and delete the bank of englands records from your pc... :P
if anyone does attempt to get to your wireless link it is only going to be so they can get some free bandwidth not read your latest sensational dairy entry..
and by the time you firewall all the ports you think they can grab you on you may as well not be on the internet..
paranoia is a marvellous thing.......
Who said I am paranoid? I am just cautious is all.:D
Shorty.
I have implemented some of the above, but the only thing which gives me piece of mind is VPN.
Anybody connecting to my network via wireless or wired gets its into a 'DMZ subnet'. From there nothing can be done. In order to access the actual network (which then includes the other machines and internet) the users need to VPN. As VPN established a secure protocol from the start (even before authenticating) cracking the authentication is nearly impossible.
