I like the Wi-Spy. My only problem is that it isn't all that well construc=
ted. We had to send it back once because the USB port contacts started fai=
ling. They replaced it, but the new one is starting to show wear as well. =
Always use a USB extension cord. Just tape it on there to save yourself t=
he trouble.

We use wi-spy/chanalyzer as well. Works pretty well, though I wish their p=
reloaded signatures were more sensitive.
