Bad. It works, but it always freezes up and won't let any other programs open up. I thought it might be the Wizards Slow CPU, so I overclocked my CPU to over 200, and it still did it. I'm uninstalling.

Great concept, finds my AP... and all the other's in the area... but Fails when attempting to connect WEP or WPA... I'm either missing something obvious, or the software needs work... I look forward to the next version.

Oh my gosh! This program really screwed up my ipaq! Had to hard reset and reinstall everything...and just when I got it where I really wanted it. I lost all internet connections and couldn't resolve it no matter what I tried. Even after uninstalling it, my ppc started lagging something awful and pretty soon I couldn't access any program because it kept wanting to try to connect. I should have read the review from another ipaq user before downloading this. It looks like it would be very useful if it didn't have such issues with Ipaq's... or mine anyway.

Great software! Once installed and driving around with my car for 2 km, he found 30 WiFi connections. and 21 connections where succesfully estabilsed! Even on the AP of KPN in my village! Just keep going the good work!

I experienced an error when first trying. After downloading some kind of .net program from the microsoft downloadsite (I found it by just entering the error in google) it worked perfectly. A must-have!

Works great on my new Samsung!

Awesome. Tested the latest version but have not fully explored it yet. Easy Internet connectivity and best of all ... its free!!

Looks nice, but it complains that my .NET installation is too old (but it's as new as they come, AFAIK) and keeps crashing on my Axim x50v. I look forward to x50v support

It looks nice but it fails to connect my Ipaq even to my own wireless home network.

Very good software that looks very professional and acts it. I've even resorted now to not turning it off and just letting it find a network without me even watching it go through the stages of connection. It's that fast.

Clever and useful software, and indispensable if you have WiFi. Just turn on your WLAN and watch Hitchhiker hunt for local wireless networks, configure and connect. I get the occasional crash, but it's usually stable. You can walk down the street and watch it search out networks. I even used it on a bus the other day--not very useful for connection, but fun anyway.
