I'm not looking to hack an AP, I'm looking for a way to verify that the traffic is coming from known pc's in the network. We have a laptop that does do some of the stuff, however, since all of the laptops available have built-in Wireless-G, that pretty much stops us from using Linux or more robust programs from working. We've tried using 802.11b cards with very, very limited success, as they run G-only mode on all but 1 of their AP's.

The 1 AP that we're testing with B is going to be used for their network, as they aren't seeing an advantage to only having Wireless G networks and Linux/Mac clients in the same network. Since a VERY few G cards are available for Linux, going back to B mode makes more sense for them.
