Re: wireless signal strength (more accurate reading than windows) NETSTUMBLER is the one. Free. When it works, it's great!
Does not work with all cards/adapters.
I must say, I wish it would work consistently for me. It does not
seem to deal well with windows XP zero configuration or something,
though as I understand it, that's what it's designed for. It worked
for a few weeks for me, then got broken somehow. Sometimes it shows no
signal, other times no AP at all, then I turn on XP wireless again and
the AP comes right up.
On the "help" and the manual end, there is almost nothing. Wish
somebody would do a tutorial. Has a forum, (stumbler.net?) but it
appears to shun beginners.
Try it and see! |
