What is required to
run KisMAC? |
KisMAC requires an Apple
Macintosh Computer with MacOS X 10.3 or above.
The following
wireless cards are supported by KisMAC:
1 |
Apple's internal
AirPort card or Airport Extreme |
2 |
Intersil
Prism2-based PCMCIA cards (by the macjack driver) |
3 |
Lucent Orinoco
cards (by the macjack driver) |
3 |
Atheros-based
PCCard cards |
4 |
Prism2-based USB
devices |
3 |
PrismGT-based
PCCard cards |
|
All of the cards
have basic monitoring capabilities. However external Orinoco cards
can also send raw management frames. Prism2 cards are able to send
raw data frames as well. Airport Extreme cards are now supported in
passive mode.
We recommend the
use of an external antenna, this will allow the capture of packets in
a wider area. If you have a TiBook you might want to check out Ulfs
MacTail page.

In order to find
certain networks again, KisMAC offers support for NMEA-compatible GPS
devices. These devices need to be supported by MacOS X. |
