Dear Stef,

I m very please with your code, I m trying to run so I could use for my study of the RSSI.

Mrssi is what I m after but I m having this issue

Please let me know if you could help.

Thanks

i think the problem is that one of the frequencies is not supported: https://github.com/stef/wireless-radar/blob/master/wirelessradar/mrssi.py#L17 is the chan map, i think it is also replicated in the other py files. play with it and iwconfig to figure out which frequencies are supported by your wifi card. if that helps, would be nice to know which freqs were causing trouble, might be useful for others.

[stef]

can you try if it works if you only have the entry for 2.427GHz in the mapping?

[stef]

do you use wlan0 or mon0 for this? i think you have to put the interface to monitor mode.

Do you want me to add in to the code?

yes I m using wlan6mon that is my monitor interface armon-ng is working fine

I have re-download the version from the Python site and seems I did run the

./wprox.py wlan6mon

WARNING: No route found for IPv6 destination :: (no default route?)
typ AP SSID* MAC vendor channels cnt max min avg sp rssi flg attempts

And stops

[stef]

can you replace the dict in line https://github.com/stef/wireless-radar/blob/master/wirelessradar/wprox.py#L17 til line 29 with the following dict and try again?
chanmap = {"2427": 4}

Hello Stef,

I've tried this and also I didn't work....

Thanks once again for helping me on this

[stef]

can you post the output please?

[narezzi]

[stef]

that is very strange. what happens, when you press ctrl-c? can you post that output? seems to hang somewhere it seems.

[narezzi]

Stef,

I just press enter to run and then drop a line nothing happen.

I haven't control c at all.

What version of Linux have you used in order to make it work.

[stef]

i doubt this has anything to do with a linux version, i suspect it is a difference in the wireless device. what kind of wireless device do you have? anyway, still interested in where it hangs, pls paste the output of the following steps:

1. ./wprox.py wlan6mon
2. press control-c to interrupt the program started in 1.
3. copy/paste the output here.

Teamviewer?

Thanks

[narezzi]

Would you say that possible could be the IPV6?

Answer = NO

Just disabled

[stef]

sorry i have no teamviewer. however it would be interesting to know what your wireless card is and what the output is when you interrupt wprox.py.
