Dear All,
I am trying to get signal quality and link quality about two nodes that
connected in ad hoc mode. So I can choose the best node to become a courier
in DTN network. I tried to use iwspy command but it show the result like
this :

# iwspy wlan0 + c4:e9:84:16:1f:07 192.168.10.2
Interface doesn't accept reading addresses...
SIOCGIWSPY: Operation not supported

# iwspy wlan0  c4:e9:84:16:1f:07 192.168.10.2
Interface doesn't accept addresses...
SIOCSIWSPY: Operation not supported

Could anyone help me to solve this problem? or maybe there is another
method like iwspy?

Thanks,

Zai
