Features of Chanalyzer Chanalyzer turns data collected from a Wi-Spy into highly interactive charts and graphs, allowing users to "visualize" their wireless landscape. Together, Wi-Spy and Chanalyzer enable both enterprise and small business users to visualize, troubleshoot, and optimize their wireless networks. This software records real-time data for review later or remotely. Use Chanalyzer for effective explanations on how you will optimize a customer's wireless network. You can also troubleshoot without leaving your desk by installing our new Recon application, a simple Wi-Spy 2.4x data server. Connect to it remotely from any location with Chanalyzer as if the Wi-Spy were attached to your local computer.
Wi-Fi Integration: Information such as SSID, Channel and dBm are overlayed on the 2.4 GHz data. (This does not use the Wi-Spy hardware. It uses the computer's Wi-Fi card).
Networked Wi-Spy: Connect to a Wi-Spy through an IP address. Configuration Options: Zoom into a channel with greater resolution, for detailed troubleshooting. Signature Identification: A "Signatures" sidebar makes it easy to match the shape appearing in your graph to the device signature (from MetaGeek's growing Signatures Library) - so you can identify the interference. Data Inspector: Shows frequency, amplitude, time, and other data of any point in any view. Embedded Notes: Textual information can now be added to any recording by embedding user notes. System Requirements • Windows 2000, XP, or Vista with .Net 2.0
• USB 1.1 or 2.0
• 1024 x 768 Screen Resolution or Greater

inSSIDer inSSIDer is an award-winning free Wi-Fi network scanner for Windows Vista and Windows XP. Because NetStumbler doesn't work well with Vista and 64-bit XP, we built an open-source Wi-Fi network scanner designed for the current generation of Windows operating systems. inSSIDer was discussed by Lifehacker and Tekzilla! What's Unique about inSSIDer? - Use Windows Vista and Windows XP 64-bit.
- Uses the Native Wi-Fi API.
- Group by Mac Address, SSID, Channel, RSSI and "Time Last Seen."
- Compatible with most GPS devices (NMEA v2.3 and higher).
How can inSSIDer help me? - Inspect your WLAN and surrounding networks to troubleshoot competing access points.
- Track the strength of received signal in dBm over time.
- Filter access points in an easy to use format.
- Highlight access points for areas with high Wi-Fi concentration.
- Export Wi-Fi and GPS data to a KML file to view in Google Earth.
