install a java development kit for your platform.  sun.com and 
blackdown.org are good places to look.  if your platform is not listed, 
try searching the web. the jdk is required during install, the jdk 
contains header files needed to compile the jpcap shared object.
after install, mognet can be executed by either a jdk or jre.

set JAVA_HOME in install.sh to your java directory, then run install.sh.

set your card to monitor mode.  this varies by card brand and operating 
system.  instructions are readily available for cisco aironet and 
prism2-based cards (linksys, etc.) on the web.

run: java Mognet eth1
where eth1 is your wireless interface.  you may need to specify the full 
path to the java exectuable if the JAVA_HOME/bin directory is not in your 
PATH.

if you want to use text-mode capture for off-line analysis,
run: java ConsoleCapture eth1
where eth1 is your wireless interface.

mognet saves log files with the pattern mognet-(timestamp).log.  mognet 
will allow loading files matching this pattern that are in the current 
directory.  this allows mognet to avoid the use of dialog boxes which 
would be inconvenient on handhelds.

if you are getting nonsense in the capture window, you are not in monitor 
mode.  if there is garbage in the ssid, you are picking up frames 
where noise/interference is corrupting part or all of the frame.
