Post comment/reviewWhat is Wifi Channel Watcher for GNU?
Assess channel usage of neighboring routers & get an alert if your active channel is not optimal. Troubleshoot wifi without lifting a finger! - angela-d/wifi-channel-watcher
Additional options:
- MAC address/BSSID lookups of neighbors - Useful when troubleshooting rogue access points or evil twin attacks
- MAC address caching - No need to pull lookups from the internet when most neighboring routers are likely static
- Enterprise access point lookup - Useful when you have several access points with the same SSID; reference a list of BSSIDs and easily set custom identifiers (see 'Full Detail' screenshot)
