I've just completed a Mac version of Don's "point4020" utility. It's called SatTool, and it's available as a free download here. Please note that, at present, this utility will work only with the DW6000. It has been tested on OS 10.2.8 and OS 10.3.5. If you have questions, please contact me at garyvillere@earthlink.net .

***Wow, that is great to hear!*** I wish I had a Mac to try it out. Very cool.

Thanks so much, Gary. SatTool is terrific. Solved my ranging problems. Now I'm online whenever I lke with an iBook and Airport. Leaving for Mexico in a few weeks for five months and feel like I can count on my trusty DustyFoot.

Hi Scott, thanks for the fine system. I'll be showing it off on beaches all the way to Guatemala.

Hi John, thanks for the postitive feedback. Have a great trip down south.

And thanks to Gary for the Sat Tool. I have since seen it in use on a Mac and it is very nice. The DW6000 reset feature is great too. Nice work.

Scott

@GaryV

Ihave been using your program for the last few months and I have never taken the time to thank you for writing it.
The programs works great and it takes just a few seconds to point and range and reboot.
I use it on an Powerbook and OS X.3.7
Thanks again.
