C: Graphical wireless scanner
Description:
C: >-
<p>
LinSSID is a graphical program that displays locally receivable 802.11 wireless attach points and ad hoc networks.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
LinSSID is graphically and functionally similar to inSSIDer (for Microsoft Windows) and Wi-Fi Analyzer (for Android).
</p>
<p>
LinSSID can be used to measure the local performance or to search for an interference free channel to be set in
a wireless router (access point or AP). The wireless established link won't be affected by these operations because LinSSID
needn't set the monitor mode in network interface.
</p>
<p>
