AirRadar CommentaryWhat happened to closed (stealth) network ID? - Version: 1.1, 9/19/2008 11:00AM PST

I've been using version 1.0.5 which does a fine job of identifying closed (stealth) networks. A great help when it came to selecting a wireless channel which wasn't being used by anyone else within range...even if their network was stealthed.


Today I d/l version 1.1 and find that stealthed networks are no longer being fingered. Why was that capability removed? I thought it was one of the best features of the software...if the user is interested in de-conflicting his/her network channel from nearby users.

If running 10.4, it may not correctly be able to determine the encryption used. Please contact us via support ticket immediately so we can cipher the problem and release a fix as soon as possible. Thanks! If you're on 10.5, this is an issue we are not aware of and would also like to work with you to find a timely resolution.

AirRadar CommentaryNEW BUG! 1.0.9 Reports WPA as WEP: WTF? - Version: 1.0.9, 9/18/2008 09:58AM PST

I get concerned when a program HAS a nice capability, then it goes wonky.

I and some of my neighbors are using WPA encryption on our WiFi networks like the good little netizens we are. So why does AirRadar think EVERYONE is using WEP encryption?! This happens through repeated boots of the app. I verified that I and my neighbors are using WPA.

So should this program have a 'b' for beta after its name?

I sort of hope everyone uses AirRadar so no one actually knows I use WPA and I don't have to put up with WPA war driving attacks. Thank you Koingo! >>snark, snark<<

Actually I like Koingo a great deal and I hope they sort this out.
