Download PassMark WirelessMon 4.0 build 1009

PassMark Software has released a new version 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 has been configured correctly, to test whether all components are working properly, whether the access points are secured and what the network throughput speeds are. If directional antennas are used, the program can help locate an antenna. It can also help detect interference and other problems. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Changes in verion 4.0 build 1009:

• Added support to display when a network is 802.11AC
• Increased size of “Select AP” dialog window so maximum SSID names and MAC address can be displayed without the need for scrolling/resizing the window
• Decreased memory use when saving a signal strength image to try and prevent out of memory errors when working with very large maps
• Fixed a display/synchronization issue with the access point list occasionally assigning the wrong status icon to an entry if rapidly sorting the list
• Improved information element processing when scanning for networks to improve extra information reported (such as 802.11N speeds)
• Corrected a typo of “Latitude” instead of “Latitude”
• Added an error message when no network cards are detected
