WirelessMon is an intuitive and reliable software that can be used to detect and monitor Access Points on all wireless networks. The program provides extensive information on each SSID is found, inter alia, the AP is secure (or not) and its availability for use. A chart of the best live channel provides information on the level of traffic for each available channel. This information will assist network managers by indicating channels that could be used to reduce interference and improve throughput. The Professional Edition users will have the added bonus of being able to generate a coverage map based on the signal strength of all detected APs. To use this function, users need to import a map created by an another application (eg scanning). Once the map is loaded, the user can either plot points manually on the map, or use a Global Positioning System (GPS) unit. If done manually, choose to use a dot on the map and automatically stores information on every AP program can be seen there. GPS users need to establish two reference points, then we can leave it to the program to see their location on a map and store the AP information for each point. Network managers, laptop computers and monitors Rivers WirelessMonto all find to be the perfect tool for their wireless network requirements.

Review: WirelessMon is a network information tool which allows you to get detailed information about the wireless networks detected in your area. You can use this program to make the right choices when you can choose between various hotspots. You can use this tool to check the signal strength and channel usage to ensure you use the best solution for a fast internet connection. List of available information also included the frequency and maximum speed of the network. When your area is home to a variety of wireless network adapters, it is recommended to check the channels used to detect overlay network. This information allows you to choose a less crowded when creating a new connection channel. Wireless network security is very important because the signals can be easily intercepted and used to access personal data. This application displays the encryption type for the entire network detected and help you identify a local access unsecured or using low security encryption algorithms. Network administrators can use WirelessMon the laptop to check the signal strength and coverage area for office buildings. You can also use GPS devices to create signal strength maps for larger areas with multiple access points. While this program provides detailed information, the interface makes work easier for less experienced users and put the data of the most used in the Summary tab. The advanced user can find information such as the rate of multicast frames sent or received in the other tab packages. Overall, WirelessMon provide you with a variety of diagnostic network in an intuitive interface that requires minimal resources to run tools.
