Pros
None, none, NONE!!!
Cons
All it did was download WinZip and try to make me PAY for it!
Summary
USELESS!
"Monitors changes in wifi download/upload speed"
"Monitors changes in wifi download/upload speed"
Pros
It changes as regularly as the signal might, maybe adjust your computer to where the signal stronger instead of weaker more easily. Small, just a couple centimeters diameter. You can set it to remain on top of other windows. Works with Windows 7.
Cons
Doesn't measure strength in bps, instead it seems to use a percentage. I don't mind it. Main slightly annoying thing is that you have to download yahoo widgets or something like that to use it because it's a widget file.
Summary
This can make wifi a bit less painful of an experience to use. Seems to be a good piece of freeware.
