Why each option
To view available wireless networks, you should either click the network icon in the notification area or access the Network and Sharing Center via Control Panel.
Clicking the network icon in the notification area (system tray) directly opens a fly-out panel showing a list of available Wi-Fi networks, which is the quickest way to connect or view network status. This provides an immediate and convenient interface for network management.
Windows Mobility Center is primarily for mobile PC settings like display, battery, and wireless status, but it's not the primary place to list and connect to new wireless networks directly.
The Network and Sharing Center in the Control Panel provides comprehensive network configuration options, including the ability to view active networks and set up new connections, which also shows available wireless networks. This offers a more detailed interface for managing all network adapters and connections.
Sync Center is used for managing offline files and synchronization partnerships, not for viewing available wireless networks.
Ease of Access Center provides accessibility options, not network connection management.
