Guest Bill Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 For those who missed it, the following item from Tuesday's Daily Telegraph may be of interest: If you have a Wi-Fi enabled laptop and you want to make use of public Hotspots then a little gadget called a Wi-Fi ‘Sniffer’, ‘Seeker’ or ‘Finder’ could come in very handy. Most Sniffers have a LED bargraph display that shows when you are within range of a wireless network; the more lights that are lit the stronger the signal. More sophisticated models also have an LCD display that shows the Hotspot’s ID and whether or not it is encrypted. Basic key ring sized sniffers cost from around £25 and are readily available from on-line retailers and PC suppliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
