2- Airport Radar
AirPort Radar is a free and convenient tool for quickly scanning the area for AirPort and other wireless networks and giving you access to open/closed networks and signal strength. It will work with AirPort cards, MacWireless 11g PC Cards, and 11g PCI cards. Mac OS X 10.4 or later is required. Supports Mac OS X 10.5.
The latest version of Airport Radar (Up to date is 1.1.1) and here are some of it’s features:
- Signal Strength at a Glance - Visual signal meters tell you the strength of the AirPort signal for an easy-to-read radar screen.
- Portable Network List - Click on a category to sort the list of networks by that category. Click on the radio waves symbol to sort by signal strength.
- Connect to Open Networks - By simply clicking on the name you can connect to any network that is not password protected.
- Remember Lost Networks - When a network falls “below radar” it won’t disappear from your radar screen right away. This is particularly useful when a network is right on the threshold - with AirPort Radar it won’t jump on and off the radar screen, it will just turn grey temporarily while it is too weak to connect to. You can choose how many scans a lost network stays on-screen with the “Scan Memory” setting on the back side of the widget.
- Auto-Resizing for Various List Lengths - The AirPort Radar widget will automatically resize itself to accomodate longer or shorter lists of wireless networks. If the list grows longer than the maximum, a scrollbar will appear.
