Yes, since Windows doesn't support creating an AP from the card, and it 
connects to Windows. Unless there are other modes that can do the same 
thing...

[nomenclature: let's call the FreeBSD machine with the rum interface, 
the one I wish to associate the device with, the "gateway" and the other 
one the "laptop"].

I have a scan from the the laptop, but apparently it doesn't record all 
- only beacons and probe responses are in the dump and only from two 
nodes - my own and one of the neighbours' (but it's a noisy neigbourhood 
and the device finds at least three more APs.

Here's a sample:
