Description-en: graphical wireless scanner
LinSSID is a graphical program that displays locally receivable 802.11
wireless attach points and ad hoc networks.
.
A table is displayed with various parameters such as MAC address, channel,
and signal strength. Graphs are also displayed with signal strength by
channel and signal strength over time.
.
LinSSID is graphically and functionally similar to inSSIDer (for Microsoft
Windows) and Wifi Analyzer (for Android).
.
LinSSID can be used to measure the local perfomance or to search for an
interference free channel to be set in a wireless router (access point).
The wireless established link won't be affected by these operations because
LinSSID needn't set the monitor mode in network interface.
