Scan your wifi network and obtain troubleshooting details, with extreme granularity; using a colorful command-line tool with no technical skill necessary. (Assuming you are familiar with git, of course.)

Obtain the following details about your wifi connection:

Wifi statistics:

• SSID / wifi name / access point / router name you're connected to
• MAC address & manufacturer details
• Channel details; connection cipher/encryption for your connection
• Neighbor details:
  • Nearby router / access point signal strength (in relation to you)
  • Their router MAC & chip manufacturer info
  • SSID (wifi name) and overall neighbor channel utilization
  • What channel each router or AP is using
  • How many routers/APs total are on that channel

Connectivity assessments:

• Connection detection
• Speed tests & packet loss
• IP & DNS information
• VPN detection

Optional, built-in enterprise capabilities:

Useful in scenarios where you're in a multi-access point environment; several APs carrying the same SSID but are posted in different locations throughout your campus.

• Determine whether or not you're on your organization's network / intranet
• Assign custom AP names to access points/routers at your organization (useful when determining which access point in your building is causing issues, such as channel overlap or evil twin attacks)

Initial Setup

#2 (Extended: Basic + packet loss, IP & DNS information)
#3 (Basic + speed test only)
#5 (5g channel usage)
#6 (Access point + channel usage) - appearance varies by OS; Linux looks the coolest
Channel lookup (Linux only)

If you find this tool useful, you might also find these handy (both are currently for Linux only):

• wavemon - ncurses-based monitoring application for wireless network devices on Linux
• wifi-channel-watcher - Monitor channel usage of neighboring routers/access points & get an alert if your active channel is not optimal

There's a few cosmetic bugs that don't affect performance.

Original iteration of this application was written by my super cool boss.

I added cross-platform capabilities + enterprise AP customization, MAC lookups and channel details.
