| said by ryanlin2002 :finally, a replacement for netstumbler As old as Netstumbler is, I still find that it gives more accurate signal readings then inSSIDer, it could just be my Wi-Fi card, I am not sure.
Still I really like inSSIDer, and the channel view makes it far easier to explain channel overlap to a non-techical person.

Still I really like inSSIDer, and the channel view makes it far easier to explain channel overlap to a non-techical person. It is possible that NetStumbler is getting more accurate readings from the Wi-Fi card as it uses a special driver and inSSIDer uses informatin from NDIS. If you could send side-by-side screenshots or .ns1 files from each (supported in the inSSIDer beta we released yesterday) to me (ryan@metageek.net) we'll look into it.
I'm glad you like the channel view; it is so easy to show people the problem with throwing up a high power network on channel 4 when there are already active networks on 1 and 6. Our neighbors had access points on 4 and 9, which didn't leave us a quiet channel to use. I used the channel view to show him how the configuration caused problems for us, and used Wi-Spy to show how much NOISE their cordless headsets caused across the entire 2.4 GHz band. The next day he'd moved the APs to 1 and 11... now if only they'd get rid of their cordless headsets | |

| Re: Updated inSSIDer (v1.1; 2/24/2009) Is there anyway you could give users the option to not display the graphs at the bottom of the inSSIDer window? I like and use the tabular display but don't really need the graphs.
Thanks...

| Re: Updated inSSIDer (v1.1; 2/24/2009) That's a great idea, not sure why we didn't think of that earlier! I just logged a feature request for a preference to turn off the graphs.
Also, we just released a new beta with GPS support and the ability to export data to .ns1 files... these features were submitted by an inSSIDer user... go open source! | |

Appleton, WI | I have been using the older version for a while & switched to the new one recently. It meets my needs very well. Multiple cards and all. Highly recommended.

| The USB 'Antenna' is part of the WI-SPY product, which is a 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzer. It is used to identify sources of radio signals in the same frequency range as wifi.
inssider is free product used to monitor / measure access points
