This is like, weird..

Got a Dell Inspiron 4100 with one of the $50 cards in it.

I found that at my desk with Win2k I could baaaaareeeellllyyyy get a signal
from an AP around the area. Maybe a signal of 10-12 in Netstumbler.

I'm dual booting with Debian, 2.4.18 and found that when I cat
/proc/net/wireless the signal / noise ration is more like 15-20.

Is this just the measurements of the various OS's comming into play, or is
there some other explanation??

Regards,
