A scanner and internet-checker for open nets would be useful.

Auto-Cracking closed lans would not be legal in most countries and worse still, not feasible.

If you use the software in your own house it magically becomes legal.
Same thing for all other software more or less automated such as aircrack, dsniff, tcpdump etc etc.

Is not the knife witch is illegal but the use, isn't it ?

Having this kind of online-when-available capability would definitely make using my n810 a lot more convenient. This would take the (ever-so-slight) pain out of manually connecting to 1st-time networks. It could also be a nice compliment to any connection-aware applications that require a working internet connection to function (for example, an offline/online-mode twitter client, offline gmail, etc.).

Really good idea!

It would be a "need to have" script.

Is there some API to control the network manager from maemo ?

Else this may be done using shell scripting and using wireless-tools maybe ...

BTW, I am looking for a tool to report open hotspots' gps location... can you suggest one ?
