Publisher's description

From Microsoft :

Virtual WiFi helps a user connect to multiple IEEE 802.11 networks with one WiFi card. VIt works by exposing multiple virtual adapters, one for each wireless network to which connectivity is desired. Virtual WiFi uses a network hopping scheme to switch the wireless card across the desired wireless networks. Switching between networks is transparent to the applications, such that the user feels she is connected to multiple wireless networks simultaneously.

    Version: VirtualWiFi 1

    "This wifi utility offers alot of power and versatility to the savvy user"

    by schultzgeo on August 31, 2007

    Pros: This software allows the user to connect to several wireless hot spots at the same time using just one wireless card. This is very usefull when trying to increase bandwidth and reliability.

    Cons: The software is difficult to implement. The instructions are not user friendly. The implementation is kinda clunky. However, once you get the setup correct, it will stay correct even after a reboot. This could use a little more debugging and a gui for less savvy users. There seems to be no way to view the availability of new hotspots once the utility is installed. There may be a way to do that, but the standard windows wireless utility becomes disabled upon installation. This causes the need for uninstallation to view the wireless that's available and then reinstall and setup using the fresh information. This is great for power users who love a challenge. This would be an ideal candidate for development of a front end.
