About

OpenPacketLoss

Read full description

OpenPacketLoss-Server is a lightweight utility that transforms your computer into a dedicated network testing endpoint. By hosting the server on your own hardware, you can measure the precise quality of the connection between two points on your network, eliminating the unpredictable variables of the public internet. How to Use It Run the Server: Launch the app on a stable PC or laptopβ€”this becomes your "target" device. Connect the Client: Use any OpenPacketLoss client on a different device (such as a phone, tablet, or another PC). Troubleshoot: Start the test to view real-time packet loss, jitter, and latency. Why Run Your Own Server? Testing against a server you control allows you to isolate your hardware. You can instantly determine if connection drops are caused by faulty cables, weak Wi-Fi, or router congestion, or if the issue is actually with your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

About

WiFi Devices Quick

Features
Read full description

WiFi Devices Quick helps you see supported Bonjour service endpoints published on your current local Wi-Fi network. Start a foreground discovery, review the exact service name, type, domain, and observed interface, then mark an endpoint as known or unknown and add a local alias. Compare the current successful result with the previous successful discovery. Features: - User-initiated foreground Bonjour discovery - Fixed, declared set of common local service types - Exact service endpoint identity without guessing physical devices - Known or unknown classification and local aliases - New, continued, and previously observed differences - Clear empty, partial, timeout, permission, and Wi-Fi recovery states - English and Japanese support Important limitations: The app does not list every device on a network. A device appears only when it publishes a supported Bonjour service that the iPhone can observe. Guest networks, client isolation, firewalls, and service configuration may affect results. The app does not determine IP address, vendor, owner, physical-device count, or security status, and it does not scan ports, inspect traffic, or run in the background. No account, analytics, advertising, third-party SDK, or cloud sync is included in the first release. Discovery and saved information are not sent off your device.
