Wi-Fi Locator HWL1

Hawking Wi-Fi 2.4GHZ 802.11B/G Locator (HWL1) is the largest unit we tested. It has a clamshell design, with a high-gain antenna that flips up to pinpoint nearby hotspots. The Wi-Fi Locator features five blue LEDs for indicating signal strength and an orange power LED. Pressing the Locate button once scans the area, and holding the button down causes the Wi-Fi Locator to continually search for the signal’s source.


Because this device relies heavily on the directional antenna, it was sometimes difficult to pinpoint the source when at the edge of a signal without rotating 360 degrees. However, it did
manage to find a usable signal in most cases and was an average performer compared to the other devices.
