    Tools for the Ipaq PDA.

    I was just wanting to know if there are any decent network tools available for the Windows Pocket PC 2003, OS. I recently purchased an HP Ipaq, it's a sweet PDA, with built in Wi-Fi and built in keyboard.

    Mini-stumbler doesn't run on this system, so does anyone have a program they could recommend, to retrieve basic network info, any type of network info tool.


    Thanks in advance,

    Sorry, just wanted to relate useful information. If a thread is old, but you think there is new information about the same question should you just post a similar question again with a link to the old thread?

    If you just want a PDA for network diagnostics go with a used Zaurus 5500. You can run all sorts of apps on it:

    Wellenreiter II
    Kismet
    Zethereal
    Ettercap
    Ngrep
    TCPDump
    Nmap
    Nemessis
    OpenZaurus
    Change your MAC Address

    I got mine about half a year back for about $200 with Wi-Fi card.

    I have a hp5555 it was just doing some weird stuff so I sent it back to them. Called them yesterday and they sent a box today. Should be back in a day or two I think. The other day they had a new HD for my tablet mailed to me within 12 hours.
