Nirsoft Wireless Network Watcher is a small utility that scans your wireless network and displays a list of all the computers and devices connected to it.
For each computer or device connected to your network, the following information is displayed:
- Internal IP address,
- MAC address,
- company that made the network card
- and optionally the computer name.
You can also export the list of connected devices to an html / xml / csv / text file or copy the list to the clipboard and then paste it into Excel or another computer document application.
System requirements and restrictions
- The utility runs on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003/2008, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.
- It can only scan the wireless network to which you are currently connected. Cannot scan other wireless networks.
- In rare cases, Wireless Network Watcher may not be able to locate the correct wireless adapter, and you will need to go to the Advanced Options (F9) window and manually select the correct network adapter.
