Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Garbage.......2007-03-20

This is a worthless piece of equipment. False readings and failure to recognize even strong signals. Does't tell you anything about the signal. There are other sniffers out there that tell you if the signal is encrypted or not. I had one of these for a few months before the handle broke and I was glad to get rid of it. Useless thing. Spend a few more dollars and get one that tells you more about the signal. If I could have I would have given this zero stars.

1 out of 5 stars I'll send you mine, for the cost of postage.......2006-02-01

This is a piece of junk; I sort-of had a decent impression of Kensington products, but after buying this and walking around airports and malls and streets like an idiot (for never finding a single hot-spot, even though I knew they were there) I will no longer buy anything with the Kensington name on it.
If anyone wants it, email me and I'll send it to you for the cost of postage. but be fore-warned: it's a piece of crap.

1 out of 5 stars Push the button and watch the pretty lights turn on.......2005-09-26

I concur. I wish I would have read the reviews before I bought this piece of crap. I think the lights just turn on whenever you push the button. There's probably no wireless network sensor inside at all. Just a button and lights. Totally worthless. The folks at Kensington probably did a cost analysis and determined that they could manufacture and sell enough of these jokers to make a profit before people caught on that it didn't do anything.

3 out of 5 stars The thing actually works... sometimes........2005-04-06

It picked up a wireless signal coming from a business across the street! But it didn't pick up my wireless signal when it was two feet away.

1 out of 5 stars Not Worth the money.......2004-04-23

This device is advertised to find networks from up to 200 feet but you will be lucky to break 50 feet. The LED lights are also very hard to see under daylight conditions
