The last know download for the package was available from the Microsoft page here. This should come shipped with Windows XP, but Windows 2000 users may need to download and install the package from Microsoft. The GDI+ redistributable package from Microsoft is required to run WirelessMon. I get an error about "gdiplus.dll" missing. WirelessMon also uses passive rather than active scanning for networks and this also prevents a signal to noise ration being obtained. No, Windows drivers generally do not support retrieving noise measurements for wireless connections and usually need to be accessed using a manufacturer specific driver. This means vista will list them all under the same entry with the same security settings, usually as the newest/most secure setting being used among the group.Ĭan WirelessMon display a signal to noise ratio? The security information for my access point is displayed wrong in Windows Vista.Ĭurrently when Vista returns a list of available networks those with the same SSID are treated as the same network, even if they are not and have different security settings. If there are missing there is a post in our forum about resolving this and there is also a Microsoft support article about rebuilding the performance counters. Windows Vista: Please check WirelessMon is running in elevated Administrator mode by right clicking on the exe and choosing properties, clicking the compatibility tab, and selecting the "Run this program as administrator" option. Please check if the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib\Disable Performance Counters" exists, if so, check it is set to 0 and reboot. Windows XP/2K: This may mean the performance counters for your machine are disabled. This may mean the performance counters are disabled, the user doesn't have permission to access them or they are missing on the system. I get a "Cannot find corresponding counter name for this network card" error message. So, 802.11n devices might not report the correct speeds, but this should not affect how they operate. Currently windows information structures do not report speeds higher then 54MB/s, even in Vista. Some older network cards that do not support higher speed may not display the speed for newer networks, for example an 802.11b card may not display all the speeds of an 802.11g access point. The "Rates Supported" column on the summary tab is not displaying higher speed (for example up to 54Mb/s). Also note that V2 keys will not work in V3 of WirelessMon. Both the Username and Registration Key must be correctly entered before the software turns itself into the registered version.
