I need a WiFi signal/connection strength program
I have a Wi-Fire adapter (its basically a directional wifi antannae that sits ontop of my laptop and is good for up to 1000 feet). I need a program that tells me the signal strengths of surrounding wifi hotspots in real time. I need to be able to spin my dish and watch as signals increase/decrease. I use gnome and NetworkManager isnt cutting it. I dont have to use this program to actually connect to the hotspot, just to judge signal strength/direction of the hotspot. I'm using Debian/Lenny(Testing) something in a repository would be nice but im willing to compile.
Thanks
Edit: Not looking for sniffers like Kismet or Airodump, Looking for something that shows connection bars and basic info.
