And also consider that if equipment fails, or they bring new devices online,
the MAC addresses will change. So even if you traveled to a given set of
ports on a regular basis you still wouldn't be able to rely on either the
MAC or SSID information being consistent. It'd be /nice/ if that were
possible but as yet it's not.
When using something with the dd-wrt firmware it's really a simple matter of
bringing up the 'Site Survey' webpage on the router and selecting the SSID.
Make this part of your arrival procedure.
