>Description:
Kismet quickly stops gathering packets if channel hopping is used.
Kismet seems to work if channel hopping is turned off.
Kismet also works if the channel list consists of only one channel

Computers:  Dell Latitude LS, Toshiba 2595XDVD

Ubuntu 5.10 with patches does channel hop with the Toshiba
as well as an HP 5420

The usual wifi networking functions seem to work normally with this
card.

Normal networking functionality resumes after Kismet exits without
the need for operator attention
>How-To-Repeat:
Install Kismet and run it with (default) channel hopping
