Wardriving wasnât only reconnaissance. It was mobility. As you moved through a city or town, your card could drop one SSID and latch onto the next. Coffee shop, library, offices, video rental stores, etc. The connection followed the street grid. Connectivity became something you drifted through.
You learned which blocks handed off cleanly, which APs were stable and which ones choked under load. It was RF cartography and opportunistic roaming at the same time. Cities and towns weren't just mapped, they were stitched together by signal.
My very first #wardriving attempt for #meshcore.
I was struggling to connect MeshMapper app to Heltec V4. It was stuck at the authentication step with some "timestamp is too old" message. A couple of factory resets solved the issue (shrug).
The purpose of this wardriving initiative is to visualize an actual LoRa mesh coverage on a map. This helps to understand which areas are covered by MeshCore repeaters. In case you are interested, Vilnius coverage is here https://vno.meshmapper.net
Got fed up with #wigle's web interface and started loading my #wardriving records into #qgis instead.
Overly complicated and massively overkill?
Yes... but it is working.

There is a movie coming out entitled âWARDRIVERâ and it looks to be ever so slightly about wardriving.
*Please* tell me someone I know was a technical consultant on this flick!
