Like the Mac version, NetSpot for Windows lets you see all SSID in your vicinity, their operating channels, which ones are interfering with one another, and more. You can list off all of the networks in your vicinity, and use the tool’s mapping feature to lay out where the access points are located relative to your current position. The built-in channel and strength analyzer can run in the background, so you can map out reception as you move around your house. NetSpot also builds a live heatmap of your signal strength, so you know where you should position your access points or routers for best reception where you want to work (or where you should put your desk for the best reception.)

Here are 9 tools that provide important details on known and unknown aspects of your Wi-Fi network. Each of these tools gives you the basic wireless details: SSIDs, signal strength, channels, MAC addresses and security status. Some can even reveal “hidden” or non-broadcasted SSIDs, display the noise levels, or display statistics on successful and failed packets of your wireless connection. Two of the tools include Wi-Fi password cracking tools as well, useful for educational or penetration testing purposes.
