WiFi On Demand

Finding a free WiFi network while on vacation can be a nightmare. Using advanced GPS technology, AirRadar scans and places all networks on a map. While walking or driving, AirRadar automatically updates the location of networks when it finds a better signal elsewhere.

Open networks are clearly marked with a green dot, and closed networks with a red dot. Simply throw the laptop on the passenger seat before leaving the house for the day, and after a day of driving, have a comprehensive map of open networks!


Save WiFi scan logs for future use when travelling back to a different city. Even share these logs with others.
Graphing network signal strength over a period of time can help identify if other devices cause interference when they are turned on.
From viewing advanced router info to identifying unused channels, AirRadar helps System Administrators determine the best router configuration for an environment.

Enhance Home WiFi

In modern households, it's common for families to have a WiFi router. In apartment buildings and dense city areas, hundreds of WiFi signals can often be picked up from a single spot.

AirRadar can provide insight to optimizing your home network and reducing interference from other signals. The calmest, or even unused, WiFi channels are presented with every scan.

This is a very fine product that helps he whenever I need to search for WiFi services. It helps me determine the type and level of security so that I can protect my communications. My only, repeat only, complaint is that its "mapping" functionality is erroneous … in my neighborhood (residential, suburban), it indicates that my next door neighbor has five (5) different networks (they have none), that I have none (I have 3), and the neighbor on the other side has none (they have one). And this is at the highest level of discrimination / magnification. Other than that, I would certainly recommend the product.

Very useful for finding rogue networks

I like to see the networks around me and see their strength compared to mine. Seeing what channel they're on is also useful. Lets me know if I should change mine.

Networking apps in general tend to be ugly and clunky. This is neither. I love it!

Jack Tannen

A rare example of a wireless networking program that seems to get everything right.

AirRadar is a very useful app in my MacBook Pro, which helps me mapping the WiFi networks around me. Two are the most important features for me: the list showing open, closed, and ad hoc networks; and the ability to connect to the strongest network. I use the first feature mainly when I'm in a new place/ area, with no known networks around, and no will to pay for a connection :) . Then, a fast scanning for open networks can save me some bucks! I also use it when I've previously established a connection with a friends' or colleague's laptop or other device, which can be found under ad hoc networks. On the other hand, I find the second feature very useful when I'm in a busy place, with a lot of free or previously accessed Wi-Fi's, such as in a mall or an airport. Then, connecting to the best network really speeds up my portable productivity (even if that simply means focusing just on online gaming :) ).

It’s the wi-fi mapping solution I never even knew I wanted!

Tammy Patterson

As more and more of my neighbors install WiFi routers I have to become more diligent about making sure we aren't stepping on each other's electronic toes. I use AirRadar on a regular basis to check the channels that my neighbors are using and make sure all my routers (I have four in use) are on channels far apart from my neighbors. I have friends and customers that ask for my assistance troubleshooting their WiFi issues. More often than not there problems are caused by everyone around them trying to use the same channel and the "auto" setting which most routers default to is no protection. I will open AirRadar and find all of their surrounding neighbors are trying to use the same channels they are. AirRadar frequently makes me look like a hero genius.

Really hits home just how much the other wireless apps aren’t showing us.

Solid tool to help me tune my Wifi Setip
