Product Description
Scanning for wireless networks is now easier and more personalized! AirRadar allows you to scan for open networks and tag them as favourites or filter them out. View detailed network information, graph network signal strength, and automatically join the best open network in range.
Whether you are driving around looking for wireless networks, stuck in traffic, sitting on the beach, or if you are curious how strong your wireless signal is at home, AirRadar provides a more linear approach to network hunting. Setup a scan frequency, and have new open or closed networks have their name spoken, play alerts, or display notifications.
Various other options allow you to customize your network list further, including assigning colors to best open networks and sound cues. Download it today, and take the hardship out of getting an internet connection at a critical time.
Warning: In some countries, such as Germany, it is illegal to connect to open networks which do not belong to you. Only use AirRadar to the extent your local law permits. We disclaim all liability for your actions.

"Awesome app. Lots of useful features..." — Patman162 via Macupdate
"Incredibly useful for finding networks while on the road, and discerning which ones have the best signal strength; not to mention for helping select a mostly unused WiFi channel for my home network." — Jason Vanderberg via Bodega
"Neither iStumbler nor AirStumbler picks up my stealthed network. Also, AirRadar is significantly more sensitive than those two...when I go outside on my deck, it shows five additional networks that I didn't even know were in the vicinity...Highly recommended... So how can you go wrong?" — Felix01 via VT
"This is a fantastic program, and I would recommend it to all. It is very user friendly program, and for someone who knows little about computers can handle this one." — iceberg5252 via VT
"Very easy to use, well, even if it only scans at a regular interval (can only do this when the main appl. is running though). In short, a good addition to other appl/widget you might already have on your portables." — Design-Q via Macupdate
"(AirRadar) Is good and helps in a lot of good ways to find dead networks and assists in finding dead and ad-hoc networks in the company premises. Clean interface and the UI looks good." — pmehta
"AirRadar interface is clean. No problems using it." — Wap Zap via VT
