While kismet isn't ready for primetime yet on the 770 (its still listed as a work in progress), its better than mini / net stumbler in my opinion.

The reason is, the stumbler family gets its information by saying, hey look I'm here is there a network? and then goes based on what the AP says. If the AP is set to not respond, and not broadcast its ssid, it won't show up at all.

Kismet runs in a passive mode and watches the radio signals. So even if the AP is set to be hidden, you'll still find it. The command line gui isn't that hard. resort with s, I like s followed by l (last seen). if you find a group with a + next to it, you can either look at it with i or break the group up (don't remember the option of the top of my head). While there are gui clients for Kismet on regular nix, I don't think we'll see anything for the 770 until the developer gets one.

For the record, I used my 770 yesterday with a field guy running air magnet at work yesterday, and I was pulling networks quicker then he was with his gui based tool. Down side is that I had lots of ghost networks, but its still being ported, so I'm not expecting perfect.
