Vistumbler is
wireless network
scanner written in
AutoIT for Windows .
The main purpose of
vistumbler is to map
and visualize the
access points arount
you based on the
wireless and gps
data collected.

-
The current version
is made for Windows
10, but should still
work on 8, 7, and
vista. .Net
framework v4 is
required.
- Uses the
Windows Native Wifi
API or netsh to find
access points and get wireless information
- GPS Support.
Supports COM based
NMEA recievers.
-
Export/Import access
points from
Vistumbler
TXT/VS1/VSZ or
Netstumbler TXT/Text
NS1
- Export access point GPS locations to a google earth kml file
or GPX(GPS eXchange
format)
- Live Google Earth Tracking - Auto KML automatically shows access
points in google earth.
-
Speaks Signal
Strength using sound
files, windows sound
api, or MIDI

- For best
results, disconnect
from all access
points while
scanning for
networks.
- To use Vistumbler
in a language other than
English,
you first need to change the language in (Settings -> Language).
If you language is not yet supported you can manually change
your searchwords or
help create a language pack
- If no access
points show, make
sure the right
network adapter is
selected in the
Interface menu.
- For The graphing to start, select an access point in the
graph access point list
- There are 3
options to use a GPS
with vistumbler.
Kernel32 is the
recommended com
interface since it
supports both x32
and x64. If that
interface does not
work you can try
CommMG which should
also work with x32
and x64 (but is
slightly less
stable). There is
also Netcomm OCX,
which requires the
NETCommOCX ActiveX
control to be
installed first (Netcomm
will only install in
x32. Some people
have gotten it to
work with x64)
- Adding APs to
the top of the list
is slower. In a area
with a high number
of access points it
is better to add to
the bottom of the
list (Options -->
Add new APs to top)
- GPS receivers
need to be serial
based and show up as
a COM port. If you
have a built in
sensor that uses the
windows location
platform you may be
able to use a tool
like 'Centrafuse
Localizer' to create
a virtual com port
that vistumbler can
use. 'GPSGate
Splitter' also has
some tools to create
a compatible virtual
com port that
vistumbler can use.
