Works great, March 14, 2008
By T. Earle (VT)
Tried it and it works great. Simple to use. Gets you into the zone, then fire up the laptop to see if the hot spot is unencrypted or encrypted. Can't go wrong for the money.

Nice Basic Hotspot Finder, February 12, 2007
By Zen Williston (Heavenly Valley, NV United States)
Although this item does not give the info on open or secure network, it does work and seems to be sensitive. It is also nice and small and light for travel.

Just what the doctor ordered, January 18, 2007
By rspringsgal (Southern California)
This is a great product! It not only tells you the presence of wifi, but the signal strength. It's light enough to hang on your key chain, and turns itself off automatically so you don't waste battery.
Now if they'd only develop the technology to let you know if the network is encrypted, it would be perfect....
