AirRadar – Wireless Network Scanner created in REALbasic line

AirRadar is a great software for scanning wireless networks on Mac OS. It can view detailed network information, display graph network signal strength, and automatic joining to the best open network in range. AirRadar is very popular but hardly anyone knows that this software is developed in REALbasic.

AirRadar description

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.
