WiFi Explorer Pi vs WLAN Pros Toolbox

WiFi Explorer Pi is a Wi-Fi scanner and analyzer designed to help WLAN and IT professionals design, validate, and troubleshoot wireless networks using external sensors. It connects securely to supported mobile sensors—including WLAN Pi Go, Hamina Clip, and Oscium Nomad—as well as other WLAN Pi devices, remote sensors, and compatible custom sensors. It delivers real-time scan results with detailed information about every network it detects. You can tag scans with a location, share them through AirDrop or other apps, and save them for later analysis. Saved scans can be opened in tools like WiFi Explorer Pro 3 or Wireshark for deeper inspection. The app also provides a spectrum view that shows how channels are being used across the band, helping you quickly spot congestion and interference. Filtering includes basic and advanced options. You can filter by band, SSID, BSSID, channel, channel width, security type, Wi-Fi generation, and more. For networks that advertise it, you can also filter by channel utilization and the number of associated stations, making it easier to focus on the networks that matter most. FEATURES • Clean, intuitive interface • Add, manage, and automatically discover local sensors • Support for WLAN Pi Go, Hamina Clip, Oscium Nomad, other WLAN Pi devices, remote sensors, and compatible custom sensors • Support for 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands and 20, 40, 80, 160, and 320 MHz channels • Support for Wi-Fi 4, 5, 6, 6E, and 7 • Works with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be networks • Visualization of how networks are spread across channels • Basic and advanced filtering options • Manage and share scan results • Light and dark mode support ADVANCED FEATURES • Detailed network capabilities with full information element breakdowns for advanced troubleshooting • Import capture files to view detailed information about networks found in the capture • Configurable checklists for network validation and requirement compliance • Lock to a frequency to locate an AP or measure attenuation • Detection of deauthentication campaigns and tools to help locate their source You must connect a compatible sensor to scan for Wi-Fi networks. Supported options include WLAN Pi Go, Hamina Clip, Oscium Nomad, other WLAN Pi devices, and compatible custom sensors.

WLAN Pros Toolbox is a free field companion for Wi-Fi and network professionals. No account. No ads. No tracking. Built by Wireless LAN Professionals. If you design, install, or troubleshoot Wi-Fi and networks for a living, this is the calculator and reference set you carry in your pocket, plus the live diagnostics you reach for on site. More than 120 tools, organized so you find the one you need fast. The reference tables and calculators work offline once the app is installed. The active diagnostics need a network connection to do their job. The app shows the tools each platform supports, and on iPhone and iPad some live Wi-Fi details use a companion Apple Shortcut you install once. CALCULATORS RF and signal math without the spreadsheet: - dBm / Watt converter - Free Space Path Loss (FSPL) - EIRP, Fresnel zone, link budget, fade margin - Cable loss, noise floor, RF attenuation by material - Antenna downtilt and downtilt coverage - ITU rain fade, earth curvature - GPS: lat/long conversion, distance and bearing, midpoint, final point - Wavelength, metric conversion, hex / ASCII / binary - PoE budget, throughput by MCS, capacity planning, point-to-point link check LIVE DIAGNOSTICS The active tools for the field: - Interface information: local IPs, gateway, DNS, link details - Ping (ICMP and TCP), ping sweep, traceroute - DNS lookup over DNS-over-HTTPS (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, SOA, PTR, SRV, CAA, SPF) - WHOIS, BGP / ASN lookup, IP geolocation - Port scan, SSL/TLS certificate inspection, HTTP header inspection - Network discovery, ARP/NDP neighbor lookup, MAC vendor OUI lookup - Wake-on-LAN, packet sender - Network quality: latency, jitter, loss, throughput, and reachability checks - Wi-Fi information: live link details for the connected network CHECK MY CONNECTION A plain-language helper that answers one question for anyone, not just pros: is it your Wi-Fi or your internet? Start here when someone hands you a slow connection and wants an answer. QUICK REFERENCE The tables you keep looking up: - 802.11 standards, MCS index, Wi-Fi channels, channel bonding map - Signal thresholds, roaming parameters, AP placement guidance - WPA security matrix, 802.11 reason codes, frame exchange - PoE class and wattage, well-known ports - Cabling: Ethernet pinout, Ethernet cable, coax, fiber, RF connectors - dB reference, spectrum allocations, OSI model, Wi-Fi glossary REFERENCE AND LAB HOW-TOS - Network CLI commands (Windows and macOS/Linux) - Linux and WLAN commands, monitor mode - Wireshark 802.11 display and capture filters (reference cheat sheets, not a packet capture) - Educational resources from independent Wi-Fi authors - Field checklists for AP install and client testing Free for the community.
