RE: first experience with wifi networks

[Thomas Christlieb <thomaschristlieb () hotmail com>]

Hello Roger,
 
'sudo apt-get install tshark' and 'sudo apt-get install wireshark' is your friend !
 
-> Simply sniff the network traffic to see what kind of computers are there.
And for (german) law reasons: You're not allowed to sniff network traffic from others,
because you'll see unencrypted html pages and E-Mails too.
 
If you want to dig deeper into Wireless Securitry I recommend the Book 'Backtrack 5 Wireless Penetration Testing 
Beginner's Guide'
from 'Vivek Ramachandran'.
 
Greetings,
 
Thomas
