Wifi Hopper v1.2 Build 2008-021700

WiFi Hopper is a WLAN utility that combines the features of a Network Discovery and Site Survey tool with a Connection Manager.

Sporting a comprehensive arsenal of network details, filters, RSSI graphing and built-in GPS support, WiFi Hopper is invaluable for identification and advanced characterization of neighboring wireless devices.
Additionally, WiFi Hopper can connect to unsecured, WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK networks directly from within the application. With editable network profiles and dedicated Connection Manager execution mode, WiFi Hopper can be used as a significantly more transparent replacement for Windows and manufacturer-provided wireless clients.
WiFi Hopper encompasses a feature set aimed for a wide variety of audiences including Wireless Network Administrators, Security Professionals, Programmers, QA Engineers and Power Users.
Following is a quick tour to the main components of WiFi Hopper. Be sure to check out the Features page for a complete picture of the extensive feature set!

Network Discovery and Site Survey

WiFi Hopper can display details like SSID, network mode, encryption type, RSSI, frequency and channel amongst numerous others for a complete picture of the environment.
It's easy to filter out classes of networks by using the network filters. Additionally, a GPS device can be used for reviewing the approximate locations of the detected access points.
With a combination of other features like signal graphing, WiFi Hopper can also be used for additional tasks like detecting channel congestion.

More Transparent Connection Manager

Compared to the Windows provided and manufacturer supplied connection managers, WiFi Hopper is significantly more transparent.
With its network profile support, WiFi Hopper can remember your networks so that it can automatically connect to them as they become available.
Finally, WiFi Hopper also supports a 'Network Hopping' mode in which it automatically connects to open networks in the area.

Security, Auditing, and Testing

WiFi Hopper can be used to track unsecured wireless networks that may be compromising network security. Additionally, WiFi Hopper makes it easy to look to unauthorized access points involved in an attack or simply causing interference.
For programmers and QA engineers, WiFi Hopper is the ideal, Windows-NDIS based, testing tool. With WiFi Hoppers connectivity features, functionality of WLAN drivers and hardware can be independently verified.

Passmark WirelessMon Pro v2.1

WirelessMon is a software tool that allows users to monitor the status of wireless WiFi adapter(s) and gather information about nearby wireless access points and hot spots in real time. WirelessMon can log the information it collects into a file, while also providing comprehensive graphing of signal level and real time IP and 802.11 WiFi statistics.

• Verify 802.11 network configuration is correct.

• Test WiFi hardware and device drivers are functioning correctly.

• Check signal levels from your local WiFi network and nearby networks.

• Help locate sources of interference to your network.

• Scan for hot spots in your local area (wardriving)

• Create signal strength maps of an area

• GPS support for logging and mapping signal strength

• Correctly locate your wireless antenna (especially important for directional antennas).

• Verify the security settings for local access points.

• Measure network speed & throughput and view available data rates.

• Help check Wifi network coverage and range

Compatibility

Any wireless adapter complies with the NDIS_802.11 should be able to report information to WirelessMon. Note that only Windows 2000 (Service pack 4 and above), XP and 2003 support this software. Windows 95, 98 and NT are not supported. All the various IEEE 802.11 standards are supported, including 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g. Some features may not be supported by some wireless adapters, typically they will report only partial information in this case. It has been also been noted that several wireless adapter manufacturers are not providing device drivers that are fully Windows compliant.

Wireless LAN information

The following wireless LAN information is displayed by WirelessMon (when available, as not all wireless adapters will support all of these features).

Current connection information: SSID; Connected access point MAC address; Signal strength; Tx Power; Authentication type; RTS Threshold; Fragmentation Threshold; Channel in use; Frequency being used; Number of Antennas; Beacon Period; ATIM Window; Dwell Time; Hop Pattern; Hop Set.

Statistics information: More than 30 parameters are reported. Including a detailed break down of frames sent and received, error counts, transmission retry counters and related low level data.

IP information: Information about the current TCP/IP connection is reported. Including the adapter MAC address; Adapter device driver name; the IP Address; Subnet Mask; if DHCP is enabled; the Gateway Address and the DHCP server IP address.

IP counter information: Network throughput is monitored and displayed. This includes the maximum bandwidth available from the network adapter hardware, the current send and receive data rates in bytes per second and packets per second, plus error counters.

Standard and Professional Version Differences

There are two registered version available, standard and professional. The professional version has all of WirelessMon's features enabled while the standard version has the following restrictions;

No GPS: GPS coordinates are not supported and cannot be used for logging or creating a signal strength map

No signal strength map: The map tab and options are disabled so a signal strength map can not be created, saved or printed.
