Hi Aitor,

I edited the code as follows:

        if (z == 1)
            active_wifi_list = calloc(10, sizeof(void*));
        else if (z % 20 == 0)
            active_wifi_list = realloc(active_wifis, ((z/2) + 10)*sizeof(void*));


Please, if you can run the code and reply back whether it worked. My
neighbourhood has less than 10 active wifi repeaters.
