If you have command line access to the wireless routers, diagnostic commands such as "wl" will deliver both the connection status and the capeabilities of the client. http://www.linksysonline.com/content/view/31/44/ The speed information and more are transmitted in the 802.11 managment packets and are also available to anyone with a passive sniffer such as Kismet. For more detail, kindly disclose what you're trying to accomplish and what you have to work with. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@comix.santa-cruz.ca.us 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
