The first public release of the Wireless LAN Monitor is available. This program is available both as a XCenter Widget as well as a standalone program and is the successor of the older WifiState application of Jens Glathe (being part of some Wireless LAN driver packages) as well as the experimental XCenter Widget of Markus Montkowski of Warpstock Europe 2002.
This program program provides the following features:
- monitoring the status of your Wireless LAN connection
- support of multipe connection profiles, which can be exported and imported
- optionally configuring the TCP/IP interface of the Wireless LAN device
- automatic connection scan on startup
- automatic generation of WEP keys
The program is available both as a XCenter Widget as well as a standalone program.
Currently connection profiles read and stored with the Wireless LAN Monitor with few exceptions are downwards compatible to those of the older application WifiState.
See the homepage and the docs included in the package for a complete feature list.
