kismet problems


hi everybody, well actually i have 2 ap's over linux (madwifi, wireless tools, debian sarge kernel 2.6.13), so this is my problem:
i need to know who is connected to my ap but i need to know machine's name and mac and ip, and this information is not provided by wireless tools and too i need a graphical interface, so i tried kismet but when i use it all my clients are disconnected and i must kill kismet and reload madwifi to clients can "see" my wlan. any body know if this problem has solution and how?? or any other program which can do what i need??

Using the command ' arp -n ' might be all you need.

PrismStumbler might work. Ethereal would work as well. You get a lot from ethereal and should be able to filter it down to just locale IP in your class C subnet.

Hope this helps
