From the publisher:
|
|
"Scott Mueller goes where no computer book author has gone before right past all
|
|
the warranty stickers, the hidden screws, and the fear factor to produce a
|
|
real owner's manual that every laptop owner should have on his desk.
|
|
This book shows the upgrades users can perform, the ones that are
|
|
better left to the manufacturer, and how to use add-on peripherals
|
|
to make the most of a laptop. The CD contains one-of-a-kind
|
|
video showing just what's inside a portable PC."

From the Publisher:
|
|
"Wardriving has brought some of the top people in the wireless industry
|
|
together to put together a truly informative book on what wardriving is
|
|
and the tools that should be part of any IT department's arsenal that
|
|
either has wireless or is looking to deploy it." -John Kleinschmidt,
|
|
Michiganwireless.org Founder
|
|
|
|
The practice of WarDriving is a unique combination of hobby, sociological
|
|
research, and security assessment. The act of driving or walking through
|
|
urban areas with a wireless-equipped laptop to map both protected and
|
|
un-protected wireless networks has sparked intense debate amongst
|
|
lawmakers, security professionals, and the telecommunications industry.
|
|
This first ever book on WarDriving is written from the inside perspective
|
|
of those who have created the tools that make WarDriving possible and
|
|
those who gather, analyze, and maintain data on all secured and open
|
|
wireless access points in very major, metropolitan area worldwide. These
|
|
insiders also provide the information to secure your wireless network
|
|
before it is exploited by criminal hackers.
|
|
|
|
Wireless networks have become a way of life in the past two years. As more
|
|
wireless networks are deployed the need to secure them increases. This book
|
|
educates users of wireless networks as well as those who run the networks
|
|
about the insecurities associated with wireless networking. This effort is
|
|
called WarDriving. In order to successfully WarDrive there are hardware and
|
|
software tool required. This book covers those tools, along with cost
|
|
estimates and recommendations. Since there are hundreds of possible
|
|
configurations that can be used for WarDriving, some of the most popular are
|
|
presented to help readers decide what to buy for their own WarDriving setup.
|
|
|
|
Many of the tools that a WarDriver uses are the same tools that could be used
|
|
by an attacker to gain unauthorized access to a wireless network. Since this
|
|
is not the goal of a WarDriver, the methodology that users can use to
|
|
ethically WarDrive is presented. In addition, complete coverage of WarDriving
|
|
applications, such as NetStumbler, MiniStumbler; and Kismet, are covered."

|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> From the Publisher:
|
|
"Batteries in a Portable World fills a definite need for practical
|
|
information about rechargeable batteries. Quite often, performance
|
|
specifications for batteries and chargers are based on ideal
|
|
conditions. Manufacturers carry out battery tests on brand new
|
|
equipment and in a protected environment, removed from the stress of
|
|
daily use. In Batteries in a Portable World, Mr. Buchmann observes the
|
|
battery in everyday life in the hands of the common user. By reading
|
|
Batteries in a Portable World, you will acquire a better understanding
|
|
of the strengths and limitations of the battery. You will learn how to
|
|
prolong battery life; become familiar with recommended maintenance
|
|
methods and discover ways to restore a weak battery, if such a method
|
|
is available for that battery type. Knowing how to take care of your
|
|
batteries prolongs service life, improves reliability of portable
|
|
equipment and saves money. Best of all, well-performing batteries need
|
|
replacement less often, reducing the environmental concern of battery
|
|
disposal."
