Ususally, the software that comes with the wireless device provides controlling software that can display in the systray. Often, the display is a crude signal strength meter. You probably already have that, but don't have it set to display in the systray.

Does anyone know of any animated tools that can run down in the tasktray next to the clock for Wi-Fi connections? Currently I use the default Windows XP tool and the only thing that 'animates' is the little screen, it will turn blue when there is activity. I was kinda hoping there was a icon/program out there that would actually animate the antenna or something? Just something neat I would like to have.



Thanks.

Try a google search for 'WiFi monitor' or some such. Seems to be some third party stuff out there.

Yeah I use to use the tool that came with my card, but the colors are HORRIBLE, it interferes with my desktop theme and I can barlely see it, thats why I switched to using Windows.

I was wondering if there was any 3rd party programs out there that I could use instead.
