Neat, but...

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

It should be freeware. It's small and with 10.5 on the way, who knows if this will be a built in feature?
It's also buggy.
I am connected to my "n" AP, and my signal strength is full, but in the drop down menu, it shows it as locked and no signal. It should show that it is red, but unlocked because I am connected, and 100% signal strength.
I would like to see this fixed and free, but it's not worth purchasing even if it had no bugs.
Freeware or donation ware.
There are too many other programs out there that do a LOT MORE and are free or cost less.

Small correction...the padlock should not be "unlocked" when you are connected. The lock indicates whether it is an open or password protected network. If you use a password on your ABS, the lock will be red and locked (the color and padlock state are simply 2 ways to say the same thing).
