lorcon explained

lorcon (acronym for Loss Of Radio CONnectivity) is an open source network tool. It is a library for injecting 802.11 (WLAN) frames, capable of injecting via multiple driver frameworks, without the need to change the application code. Lorcon is built by patching the third-party [http://madwifi-project.org/ MadWifi]-driver for cards based on the Qualcomm Atheros wireless chipset.^{[1] [2] [3]}

The project is maintained by Joshua Wright and Michael Kershaw ("dragorn").
