There is more then enough info on yogi arrays on the Internet. Seems quite a strange question for something with such an abundance of resources , including software to design your own.

Kismet is reporting no encryption, which is funny as the ssid contains WPA. The council hasnt placed any type of sign that is clearly visible(which is breaking the law) , you need a pair of binoculars to see the sticker they have placed at the top of the lamp post :-).What's interesting is that they move them around and leave connection ports on the lamp posts, which are still transmitting as part of the WDS. I know a little about the system as I found articles on the net. I've identified the cameras they are using as D-link(I have a lovely brochure on them :-)) I went for a walk with my net book in backpack to try and collect more data , but when I had got home I discovered that it had gone into hibernation(doh). Will try again tomorrow. Thanks guys for the quick response.

I've recently started mapping networks using Kismet and gpsd. I have discovered that my local council is using a mesh network or WDS to set up CCTV in my local area. I'm annoyed at this as they are using the system to spy on the housing estates. Even when they move their cameras around, it is easy to see where they have been previously installed as the sockets are still on the lighting lamp posts. I discovered these vacant lamp posts still transmit( must have AP's installed inside). Must admit the probe responses are what got my attention as they had 'CCTV' in the title:-) Is there a way to view what these cameras are seeing? I would love to prove these cameras insecure. Can anyone point me in the right direction to research this?

Sorry it's been awhile, but thank you all for pointing me in the right direction. The advice has been very useful.

thank you for your speedy responce metatron.kismet would be my software of choice, but what cheap hardware could i run this on? As running it on four computers would be an over kill.

Hi all, this is my first post. My problem is, I would like to monitor the wifi signal strength in four points in my garden every few seconds for a given access point/client. I know I could do this with four computers, but this would a bit of an overkill. Are there any devices that I could use to do this? I want to be able to use the data every few seconds to produce a heat map so that varing signal strengths can be seen (even seeing clients move?).I hope to generate the heat maps using python. Thank you in advance for any information/advice that can be provided.
