Awesome Wifi tool for Android

RealGeorgeW · ‎02-12-2009

Howdy all!

My neighbor brought to my attention that there's an Wifi Analyzer(named exactly that) on the Android market that, among other things, shows the channel that all the wifi networks within range are using. This is GREATLY useful if you're experiencing degradation or signal loss.

I used it tonight, noted that channels 2-10 were PACKED, set mine to channel 11 and the signal degradation I have had was gone. WOOOT

If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.

Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

Been using this app for some time, and agree it is quite useful for a variety of occasions. Good call out.

Not sure if it's on Android, but WiFiFoFum is another very useful utility for analyizing wireless networks.

Being new here I couldn't find that star you mentioned, but having the Bionic ® it sounds good. Though I have the unlimited data ; falling under the Grandfather clause it's not a real issue for me, however for my Samsung Tablet with a data plan, it surely is a helpful issue. Thanks!

Not sure what any of your post beyond the "can't find the star" bit meant, but good for you.

It was the star I was looking for. But ironically when I just went to reply to your reply, I saw the star right next to the reply tab. We live and learn. Thanks
