Im using Knoppix Auditor Live to try and get into some networks at school, and when I open kismet I get

Name T W CH Packets Ip Range Size
! <no ssid> A N - 104 0.0.0.0 19k

and then I go into that and it gives me a 1-3 networks and they have no channels or ssid's or ip's but I can connect to the network using all the specific network information it works fine. any suggestions?

Why do you need this? If you are on the network and can connect then you have done exactly what you need to do.

Or are you doing this for some nefarious purpose? Inquiring minds need to know.

I have a small company - www.crashfive.com were a couple of geeks who go fix peoples computers for a very affordable price and I often find myself installing new drivers and such I would rather not hook into their internet connection rather the connections around, I do just want to barrow there internet for a bit, aswell as at school we have networks all over the school except they are all locked except the library one so 99% of the time I can't get online. I am in noway looking to do harm to other people.

Note: I also find myself out and about like when I go sailing where I would like to go and check my emails when I'm in the islands and so on...

Piggy backing other people's net connections without permission is not something we advocate on LQ. Those people are paying for the connection and should not have to share it without their knowledge.

If you are in a client's home, you should use their connection - they can give you permission and will have knowledge of what you are doing and when. Don't steal net connections.

For these reasons, this thread is now closed.
