SILICA 7.42 Release Notes

Blacklist filtering access points.

A blacklist filter menu option was added to load a list of BSSIDs that will be ignored by SILICA when scanning for access points. This was a customer request.

Updated documentation.

Bug fix: The card was disconnecting after a while when scanning on some Linux hosts.

The SILICA card was disconnecting from the host computer after a number of channel changes when scanning for access points on some Linux hosts due to a hardware or driver issue. To work around this, SILICA now asks the kernel driver to scan a set of channels instead of performing each channel change itself. This change also makes SILICA faster to switch channels when scanning.
