Keeping yourself informed with the goings on within your Wi-Fi network is an important task. By doing so you can protect against intrusions, stay up-to-date with connected devices and be confident that they are only doing what they are supposed to be doing and if they are even meant to be connected at all.
The following trio represents some recently added monitoring software that provides you with the ability to keep on top of your network without needing a degree in Wi-Fi forensics. They are simple to run and equally simple to understand for any skill level.
SterJo Wireless Network Scanner is a small tool that will scan your network allowing you to monitor all connected devices.
It can also detect a mobile or any other portable device that is already connected to your network.
SterJo Wireless Network Scanner will quickly display the IP address, hostname, MAC address and it will identify your router and local computer. This can very useful if you suspect that your neighbors may be connecting to your network without your permission.
SterJo NetStalker network monitoring software protects your PC from any unwanted internet activity by watching TCP and UDP connections and applications running on your PC.
SterJo NetStalker automatically scans all services and processes currently running on your PC. They will be listed under the Activity tab and you will also be able to see the information related to local and remote IP addresses, and ports, as well as the current status of the service.
An easy to read status bar will inform you about all these connection's activity. If this internet traffic monitor notices any suspicious process that could be harmful to your PCs security, a window will pop up so you will be able to quit the process and destroy it.
Wi-Fi Scanner locates visible wireless networks along with all corresponding information; including the network name (SSID), signal strength (RSSI) and quality, MAC address (BSSID), channel, maximum and achievable data rate, security, and much more.
Wi-Fi Scanner is useful for normal access point users who need to find out the signal strength distribution for their wireless network at home, or choose a position for their access point for optimal signal quality.
Using Wi-Fi Scanner, you can evaluate the allocation of wireless networks by channel and select the least congested bandwidth for their access point, allowing them to increase their connection speed significantly.
In addition, Wi-Fi Scanner is an indispensable tool for corporate network administrators in performing tasks such as configuration, planning and monitoring security parameters on business wireless networks.
We have many more awesome tools listed that vary in complexity so there should be something for everyone within the Diagnose, Monitor & Repair internet sub-category - take a look you might just find something you never knew you needed...
