Hi everybody.
My question is: If I have a wireless card with a Prism54 Chipset and if I would like to use the kismet program using my card as Access point, can I do it?
Reading the Kismet Readme document I read that Prism54 support Monitor mode. The AP mode is supported by Prism 2/2.5/3 Chipset. But my real question is: is Chipset Prism2/2.5/3 integrated in the Prism54 chipset or these chipsets are one different by the other? Can I use my 54Mbps (IEEE 802.11g) card as a 802.11b card (and then use the hostAP driver only for 802.11b) ? Or is this impossible to do? Or the best thing is to buy a 802.11b wireless card builded with a Prism2/2.5/3 Chipset? Thank a lot to everybody for your help . Have a nice Day. Mauryzyo
