The Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector is a powerful tool for managing and troubleshooting the Wi-Fi on a Windows XP SP2 or later, Vista, or 7 laptop. Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector is a software solution that can help you monitor the Wi-Fi networks of your laptop or network adapter. This application allows you to perform several actions, such as searching for Wi-Fi networks, displaying connectivity issues, detecting rogue access points, and verifying AP settings and Wi-Fi coverage. Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector sports a clean and user-friendly interface that displays detailed information about the current Wi-Fi connection, such as SSID, BSSID, channel, signal level, and network mode. If you don’t get an idea of how this program works, a help menu is included.
It is possible to sort or group networks by signal strength, SSID and others. Filtering the networks is particularly simple. The app also features a signal history window that displays a graph with the detected Wi-Fi networks and their signal strength level. You can select a radar or sonar style sweep animation for the widget, and enable or disable sounds. The network list can be exported to CSV.
