Try NetStumbler on a laptop. Expand the tree under SSIDs, until you can see the MAC address he's using, and click on it. You'll get a bar graph of signal strength which updates about every 5 seconds. Walk around, and see what that does to the signal strength. You're playing "Warmer or Colder", until you're standing next to their machine. [This works better with a Fluke tester, but that's more than you want to spend right now.] David Gillett (did this yesterday...) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is sponsored by: ByteCrusher Detect Malicious Web Content and Exploits in Real-Time.
