Locating source of wireless signal 1

[Kooch]

In my office there's a wireless router or some sort of wireless device assigning IP addresses and interfering with regular connections. Does anyone know of a particularly good program that I could use to track the signal strength and physically find whatever device is doing this? I tried NetStumbler but it just isn't accurate enough.

Thanks!

The program your using will work, however what you need is a directional antenna. This will make the world of difference. If you can find a small directional antenna, like 2-4 dbi antenna it will seriously pin point the AP your looking for. If you are using a built in wireless device in a laptop, you will need to switch to a pcmcia wireless card with an detachable antenna so you can hook up the directional antenna.

That website is really cool! I've found the source of my signal but I'm going to build one of those antennas just for the hell of it! Hahah.
