Hi all,

I have a Dell Axim PDA that I no longer really use and wanted to know if there is anyway I could get some software and CF WIFI card to use this as some form of analyser. I have been looking at the Wi-Spy for the laptop and it looks really great. I don't have anything against this specifically, other than I have to have my laptop out, where as I want a quick and easy way to perform analysis (ideally to Wi-Spy standard) without the laptop. The PDA has a 624MHz processor with 128MB of ROM, so should hopefully be powerful enough. Also has an SD slot as well as the CF slot.

Also, have anyone used iperf on a PDA to perfom throughput tests on a network?

TIA

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
