iStumbler 99

by Glenn Fleishman

iStumbler is an easy way to scan for information about the Wi-Fi environment around you, as well as see available Bluetooth devices, and what Bonjour services are available on the local network. The latest version, release 99 [1], works only with Mac OS X 10.6.2 or later, adds support for the 5 GHz band used by 802.11a and 802.11n, and takes advantage of the coordinate-based location feature in Snow Leopard to allow GPS-like tracking as the application scans.
