wireless scanner.
Can anyone reccomend a piece of software that scans for wireless lans and shows the channel they are on and the signal strengh.

I used to use Kismac but I think one of the apple security updates killed it since It cannot seem to talk to the airport in my macbook.

Can either be for Vista or OSX

The inbuilt selecton tool in OSX/Vista/Xp just shows the names and not the channels.

Seems quite a few people around here have got broadband recently and been given a free router by their isp When I look in my living room my laptop sees several wireless networks.

I want to know what channel they are on so I can move mine to a channel thats as far away as possible or at least one that has the least interference from the others on.
