Canary Wireless Digital Hotspotter - Supports 802.11b/g/n

The Pitch:

The Digital Hotspotter is a full-featured, second generation Wi-Fi detection device for 802.11b/g/n networks. Beyond simply detecting signal availability, the Hotspotter also provides essential information about most wireless networks, including network ID, signal strength, encryption status and channel. Requires 2 AAA batteries, included.

- Detect Wi-Fi without your computer
- Signal strength indicator
- Provides channel information
- Device gives network ID (SSID)
- Encryption indicator

Brand: Canary Wireless
Model: HS-20

Reference Numbers:  HS-20  B0016LG6WS 120 0211

Measurements: 5/8"L x 2 1/8"W x 3 1/4"H


The Skinny:

If you're looking for a small device to sniff out wireless access points, this is a very handy tool. It's got great range and it gives much more information than any other I've used, short of using a computer and some software. Very compact and professionally made. Works as advertised. Loads of informaton provided on LCD panel. Good range sensitivity. Overall good product. Dectects channel, strength, wi-fi type, encryption type, network SSID. Will also detect several networks SIMULTANEOUSLY.

Whether you're a tech looking to map a hotspot or just a user looking to get access to read you're mail, the Canary Hotspotter is a great tool. When you click the upper right side button, it'll start up and scan. Once it does that, you'll get several lines of information about each hotspot. Clicking on the lower 2 buttons will allow you to move between the different hotspots you're likely to find.

This thing really does the job even when driving down the street. I've used a number of these hot-spotting devices and most have been simply toys. This is a serious tool for finding and getting information about hotspots. It'll give you information about it's address, name, encryption, and whether it's locked or not. Definitely not a toy.


The Deal:

It is best to compare prices when you can. We will not post prices as retails tend to change. However at the time of this post, your best bet is one of the following:

Navigate the Web and mouse along without taking your hands off your keyboard. With the extra-long cable, you can even kick back with the keyboard in your lap.

- Ideal for servers and limited space applications

Reference Numbers:  SCORPIUS-K3NT 138 0372


The Skinny:

I needed a mini-keyboard to solve an ergo issue with my workstation, so I spent a fair amount of time searching for what is available in this form factor. There is a pretty good selection out there, but I wanted something that wasn't significantly different from a standard keyboard as I use several computers and won't always be able to use this keyboard. This keyboard had the best layout that I was able to see, especially with regard to the bottom row.

This is absolutely perfect for the laptop. It is compact, lightweight, easy to use, easy to plug in and easy to read. Keys are very comfortable for the fingers.
