Supported Wireless Client Adapters

The wireless client for SiteSense/SiteStumbler can leverage NDIS 5.1 drivers to gather signal strength information from most Wi-Fi client adapters (internal or external). The most accurate data is acquired using a Wi-Fi client adapter with a supported chipset to leverage the native drivers. Noise data can only be retrieved with a supported chipset.
