This project was started by Charles Putney; further modified by Norman Rasmussen – because NetStumbler the WiFi scanner did not work on Windows XP 64-bit and Vista. The name of this project is – inSSIDer.
inSSIDer is as open-source Wi-Fi network scanner designed for the current generation of Windows operating systems – Windows XP & Vista. It requires .NET Framework 2.0 to function properly. It can be used to quickly scan the area for wireless networks. When used on a laptop, it can help determine where weak spots in the WLAN could possibly be. It can also track and record wireless network activity graphically for performance interpretation. inSSIDer is clever enough to hide the interference that is caused by other devices. It graphs the signal strength along a timeline of each WLAN in a visual, simple-to-understand format.
Common functions of inSSIDer are:
- Use Windows Vista and Windows XP 64-bit.
- Uses the Native Wi-Fi API.
- Group by Mac Address, SSID, Channel, RSSI and “Time Last Seen.”
- Compatible with most GPS devices (NMEA v2.3 and higher).
- Inspect your WLAN and surrounding networks to troubleshoot competing access points.
- Track the strength of received signal in dBm over time.
- Filter access points in an easy to use format.
- Highlight access points for areas with high Wi-Fi concentration.
- Export Wi-Fi and GPS data to a KML file to view in Google Earth.
All in all, a better updated alternative to your NetStumbler. You can download inSSIDer version 1.2.3.1014 here.
