Download PassMark WirelessMon 4.0 build 1007

PassMark Software has released version 4.0 build 1007 of WirelessMon. With this program, the status of the wireless network card and of the access points within its range can be monitored. This makes it possible to see whether the network is configured correctly, to test whether all components are working properly, whether the access points are secured and what the throughput speeds of the network are. If directional antennas are used, the program can help locate an antenna. It can also help detect interference and other problems. Since the previous entry in the Meuktracker, the following changes and improvements have been made:

Changes in version 4.0 build 1007:

• Changed the connection process to correctly connect to an open network by MAC address (Vista/Win7)
• Fixed a bug where after connecting to an access point that shared an SSID with others WirelessMon could display the channels of the other access points in the summary screen

Changes in version 4.0 build 1006:

• Added delimiting characters to the SSID field when exporting the access point summary list to CSV to prevent SSIDs with ‘,’ characters breaking the format
• Fixed a bug where the “Other” tooltip count for the channel use was incorrect
• Fixed a bug where the sorting of the list view was affecting the output of the access point log
• Fixed a bug where removing SSIDs from the SSID filter list would not be applied until Wirelessmon was restarted
• Fixed a bug where a dropout could be logged incorrectly each sample
• Fixed a bug where sometimes some sample areas would not be filled in during interpolation
• Fixed a bug where KML files were being output in double byte format
• Fixed a bug where the KML version of the connected node log was outputting the GPS co-ordinates in the wrong location
• Fixed a case where the GPX version of the connected node log could be created without the correct header
