It's designed to work with 802.11b networks, implements QoS and IP-to-IP call functionality and uses 128-bit WEP encryption. It also scans for 'available APs in [the] hand set's environment'. War driving just became a whole lot more interesting."

    Moving from one inch away to only one foot away from the Wi-Fi antenna weakens the signal by a factor of 100.

    There goes my idea of a covert 802.11 butt plug antenna.
