Lost Wireless AP

OK, so my predecessor placed a Wireless AP somewhere in an outer building in our school. The connection has become intermittent and we need to replace...but can we find it? Nope

Does anyone have any method/software/workarounds to physically locate this phantom AP.

Thanks

Nick

NetStumbler on a laptop will detect each AP and give you the signal strength. Obviously as you get closer it'll get stronger. A technique I had to use earlier this year when the school plans where laughably incorrect/non-existent.

EDIT

I believe WiFiFoFum for PocketPC will also do a similar job as NetStumbler but I've never used.

I suppose the choice comes down to whether you have a PDA avaliable for the job (lighter) or can make do carrying around a laptop/tablet.

cheers! i suspected as much, but never having used it i wasn't sure it would be any more helpful than the wonderfully vague 5 green bars in XP

What about something like this?

I've never used one myself but I've heard they're pretty good.

Kensington, it does exactly what it says on the tin.

That looks like just the ticket!

Thanks for all your help.
