Download of the Week HeatMapper Ekahau

How strong is your Wi-Fi signal? Or, more importantly, how strong is your neighbor's Wi-Fi signal? Where do you have to be to leech, er, acquire the best free Wi-Fi signal in your general surroundings? At your favorite strip mall? Outside of the local Starbucks?

Anyone can grab a Wi-Fi sniffer and go wardriving around to find the best possible signal for your personal or business use--that's easy. Heck, you can even do that in Windows if you don't mind staring at (and constantly refreshing) the tiny little ``bars of service� meter in your wireless connections window. But this week's ``App of the Week� does a bit more than tell you the networks that give you the best signal, or when you might have acquired said signal in your trips around town. No, the app I'm profiling will actually go and map your connectivity as visualized ``hot zones� overtop any map you'd like to use.
