[Ubuntu Chicago] ubuntu wireless

[Wally Valters]

not sure if last message got through, I got a size warning...  posting
again:

less is like more (haha)

more exists in linux as well as windows, and you can get less for windows.
they are "pager" programs. they take the output of something (like lshw)
ands allow you to scroll thorough it.

more allows forward scrolling only , less allows both.  you should type man
less in a terminal window (man uses less by default actually) to see how to
use it well.  It will come in handy all the time

btw typing 'q' exits less

Yes MAC address should be the same, but the filtering is a security placebo
as well.  You can fake a MAC address rather easily
