Last week I again borrowed [1] Rob's [2] Cisco Airo 340 wireless PCMCIA (People Can't Memorize Computer Industry Acronyms) card to use. I've been trying to get it to work for the past two days (it isn't working because Rob shut down the WAP (Wireless Access Point) as he started rearranging his room and hasn't gotten back [3] to it yet) so I tried yet again.
This time, I brought up the interface, which seems to be fine, and ran a network sniffer on it and found, to my surprise, not one, but two WAPs nearby, given the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) traffic I'm seeing. Given the signal strength, I'm inclined to say that the two WAPs are in the same building we're in, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
