WirelessNetView by NirSoft is a lightweight, portable Windows utility that scans and monitors nearby Wi‑Fi networks in real time. It lists each detected network with key details such as SSID, MAC address (BSSID), signal strength/quality, channel, frequency, network type (infrastructure or ad hoc), vendor (when available), and security information. You can sort and filter the results, copy selected rows to the clipboard, or export the full list to common formats like text, HTML, CSV, and XML.
Designed to be simple and efficient, WirelessNetView runs without installation and uses minimal system resources. Optional notifications can alert you when new networks appear or existing ones disappear, making it useful for basic site surveys, troubleshooting coverage issues, and choosing a less congested channel. The tool is read-only—it relies on the Windows wireless API and does not capture packets or attempt to access protected networks. WirelessNetView works on supported versions of Windows with a compatible Wi‑Fi adapter.
