Wi-Fi sniffing products
There are other commercial (as well as open source) tools that use a form of Wi-Fi sniffing depending on the operating system and uses cases (such as WEP decryption, advance analytics, and geo location). A few of them are listed as follows:
- Kismet (https://www.kismetwireless.net/documentation.shtml): Kismet can sniff 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi traffic.
- Riverbed AirPcap (http://riverbed.com): The Riverbed AirPcap adapter is used to capture and analyze 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi traffic and is fully integrated with Wireshark.
- KisMac (http://kismac.en.softonic.com/mac?ex=SWH-1740.2) for Mac OS X: KisMac offers many of the same features as Kismet and is considered as NetStumbler for Mac. Mac users can find utility tools such as airport ID, airport utility, and Wi-Fi Diagnostics, for sniffing and diagnosing Wi-Fi networks.
- NetStumbler (http://www.netstumbler.com): This is used for Wi-Fi analysis.
