(no flash drive)

These are USB WiFi adapters, but they include a detector that can be used when not plugged into a laptop according to the info on the site. A bit of overkill if your laptop already includes the Wifi adapter.

Can anyone suggest/recommend a device to detect the presence of public
WiFi-nets so that it is not necessary to turn on the computer and boot
in order to find out if there are any hotspots nearby?

The ideal device should be small, have a display that shows the name(s)
of the available nets if any found, and be cheap...

Any suggestions?  Thanks.
