beaconDB @lemmy.dbzer0.com boredsquirrel @tux.socialAttention #BeaconDB contributors!
Attention #BeaconDB contributors!
Neostumbler 2.0.0 is out, bringing the option to exclude Wifis based on their name (SSID). This is important to exclude mobile hotspots and other moving wifis, that would mess up results.
Also it allows us to respect the "optout" and "nomap" SSIDs, used to prevent scanning.
BeaconDB has the "Common Network Index", copy the contents of these files into the field in NeoStumbler:
