Animated tool for Wi-Fi?
next to the clock for Wi-Fi connections? Currently I use the default Windows XP tool and the only thing that 'animates' is the little screen, it will turn blue when there is activity. I was kinda hoping there was a icon/program out there that would actually animate the antenna or something? Just something neat I would like to have. Thanks. Wi-Fi Rocks! wrote:

Often, the display is a crude signal strength meter. You probably already have that, but don't have it set to display in the systray. Yeah I use to use the tool that came with my card, but the colors are
HORRIBLE, it interferes with my desktop theme and I can barlely see it, thats why I switched to using Windows. I was wondering if there was any 3rd party programs out there that I could use instead.

It doesn't necessarily show that you have a
connection. But it does show the rate of tcpip traffic over the adapter you select.
