OS X Wireless Network Discovery Tools
Channel: Cameron Dixon
Date: 2012-04-10

We demonstrate some wireless network discovery tools for OS X Lion (10.7.3). These applications perform passive scanning, where a client listens to the RF environment but doesn't actually associate with an AP. 

We review Meraki Stumbler, InSSIDer, WiFi Explorer, iStumbler, Wi-Fi Diagnostics, and Chanalyzer. We briefly mention KisMAC and AirRadar.
