Hi All,
I modified the Lucent driver 'wavelan2_cs' to return the signal
strength from all the access points in range (i.e. all the information
like
the client manager for Windows.) plus some more features.
The new driver (mwavelan_cs) and an API to interface with it (for
developpers) are availbale for download at:

Hope it helps,
Moustafa
PS: I already modified the open source driver wvlan_cs to do the same
thing. I'm currently testing it on different platforms. It will be
available for download shortly.
