LRoling Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 I was wondering if it was possible to wardrive without really driving. I would buy a PCI slot card with Wireless capability, and try to access a wireless network within the city. Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRoling Posted August 8, 2003 Author Share Posted August 8, 2003 Well, no, but I think I'm close enough to the University here in town to access their open wireless network for the students... and I'm close to a few huge IT companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroChaos Veteran Posted August 8, 2003 Veteran Share Posted August 8, 2003 i'd expect the school and big corporations use wep at least... you'd have better luck getting in on a computer-inexperienced neighbor or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cq_ Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 (edited) If your university is anything like mine, the wireless areas are limited and highly inaccesible from outside of campus... /edit Changed image size and attached it.
