Although if you don’t need the extras or graphical glitz, NirSoft’s WifiInfoView actually displays more information, is portable, runs on Windows Vista or later, and is free for all uses. Password testing and Monitor Mode are pluses, though, as might be the Twitter integration for some people. Is Acrylic WiFi Free really "the most advanced WLAN Scanner"? Well, no. There’s also an optional Monitor Mode which uses Acrylic’s own driver to monitor network packets and may help you identify hidden networks. We wouldn’t recommend you use this to hack your neighbors - there’s no telling what alarms you might set off - but it’s an easy way to make sure your own systems aren’t using the most obvious passwords. Reporting options are mostly reserved for the commercial edition, although bizarrely you can tweet a screenshot in a click or two, which might be useful if you’re working on an issue with someone else.Ī built-in Connectivity module runs brute-force testing on your chosen network against a sample dictionary of common passwords. In addition, a Signal Strength chart plots the strength of each signal over time, while "2.4GHz APs" and "5GHz APs" charts graphically show their channel usage.
Launch the program and it scans the airwaves, displaying a table with details on any local access points: SSID, MAC Address, Vendor, type, RSSI, channel, 802.11 (a/b/g/n/ac), security details (WEP/WPA/WPA2/WPS), and when they were first and last seen. Connectify Hotspot is a virtual router that lets you share Wi-Fi, 3G/4G, and ethernet connections on your PC with your friends, family, and other devices.
