Looking to see what’s causing interference to your Wi-Fi connection? Need to see if it’s that pesky microwave of yours or bleeding signals from your neighbors? How about problems coming from cordless phones? Baby monitors can be an issue with the 2.4GHz range, too.

So how does one fix this problem? Buy a multi-thousand dollar spectrum analyzer? Nah, just get Wi-Spy for $99. Plug it into your laptop or desktop and it’ll sniff the airwaves for you giving details on all those signals out there. With instant view of amplitude, frequency, and time, you’ll have a great overview of what’s going on in no time. You can analyze signal strength as well as channels of any Wi-Fi signal that is in your “view”.

All this in a simple to use software package that allows you to save everything for later use. With support for Windows, Linux, and OS X, this may just be the right tool for IT pros to geeks.
