I needed too see the signal strength of open wifi connections in an area for someone. So I logged onto my Droid X and immediately went to the android marketplace to search for an app that would help. I tried four or five and kept going back to Wifi Analyzer by farproc.
It gives you five different ways to analyze a wifi connection. At first log on it brought me to the channel graph. Immediately it showed me that a neighbor had put up a new access point and we were on the same channel. I manually changed my router to a different channel to not conflict with there's. Almost instantly my network had a new purpose.
Wifi analyzer also shows you open networks nearby. This will be handy while on the road and need to connect.
A second close was wifi scanner.
Have fun and may there be an open network nearby.
