wifi locator Description

WIFi Locator is designed to use your WiFi connection in order to scan the local networks and provide you with their location. This allows the app to pinpoint them on a map without using a GPS device. In order to find out the location of your computer, can use a GPS tracker or search the Internet for the location of the IP. However, if you want to find out the location of remote computer that you do not have access to, things are not as simple. This program intends to provide you with the exact location of the wireless device by scanning the available networks from your area and display their exact address on the map. It features a simple interface that allows you to view the details about each network and search for its location. When starting the program for the first time it automatically scans the available networks and displays useful information such as the MAC address, frequency, used channel or signal strength. You can easily copy the network ID or the MAC address to the clipboard in order to use them in other applications. If you need to save the entire list you need to paste each item since the app only allows you to copy one row at a time. As suggested by the program’s name, its main goal is to identify the map location of the access point. However, in our tests it failed to load the map or display the coordinates, even though the networks were successfully detected. Overall, the WIFi Locator is a handy tool, but does not deliver on its promises. Although you can use it to detect the nearby WiFi networks, you can only view their details and not the geographical location. Reviewed by Sorin Cirneala, last updated on November 15th, 2013
