[QUOTE="Robert Lofgren, post: 76287, member: 2447"] Re: wifi Most programs use the wifi in your laptop and use it to scan the frequencies. Since you have an iPad - Go into the wifi settings and click the arrow of each detected network. It will show you what channels are being used by the different networks. It will not show you hidden networks though. Please note, no wifi scanner will show you other non-wifi equipment using the frequencies. So many devices are using the 2.4GHz today (bluetooth, wireless mouse/keyboard, remote controllers, wireless speakers, wireless mics/bodypacks, video transmitters, etc....) that you may not even be aware of its existance. There are dedicated handheld 2.4GHz spectrum scanners on the market. Given how crowdy the wifi spectrum is any pro using wifi should probably need one in their toolbox nowdays. Here is one scanner: [URL="http://shop.e-lab.de/en/product?xb804d=76b5fcf79feae89a656553b46e9b7692&info=111&xd8cd3=c00bece341d3a96290dac0c0038e897f"]Portable WLAN - WIFI Scanner 2.4GHz ISM Band-2146[/URL] [/QUOTE]
