Advanced PortChecker

If you are on the lookout for a software utility helping you scan a particular IP address for open ports you can connect to, Advanced PortChecker may be exactly what you need.

Before anything else, you need to know that, following an uneventful installation, the program meets you with a neat user interface that comes with a series of skins you can choose from and that should allow for hassle-free interaction.

All you need to do is select the type of port you want to find, with TCP and UDP qualifying for either individual or collective searching tasks.

Your IP address will be shown in a field at the top of the main window, and once you hit the “Scan” button, the results are displayed in the main section. It is important to mention that the task is performed in real time, allowing you to employ open ports on the spot.

The address, port number, type, and description will be listed, thus letting you know whether there are possible open connections for you. Note, however, that you should make sure you do have permission to carry out such an operation since it bears the risk of being tagged as intrusive.

In any case, once you have your available ports grouped in a list, you can export them as a TXT, HTML, or CSV file you can use as you see fit. Needless to say, before saving the results to your computer, you can manage it using the “Edit” menu, which allows you to remove any item while also enabling you to cancel any pending analyses.

On an ending note, Advanced PortChecker is an easy-to-use program helping you effortlessly find open ports you can connect to. It can spot both TCP and UDP ports, letting you compile them in lists you can subsequently use, but its core advantage is that it helps you see the potential of your network in real time.
