WiFi Check - speed tool

This app will allow you to test and troubleshoot your wifi network. It will be very useful when you want to test bandwidth of your wifi, ethernet or mixed network, but your internet connection is too slow (for example 10 Megabits per second), and your router can provide much faster speed between devices in local network.

To use this app as a measurement tool you will need two Apple devices : any iPhone, iPad, iPod, Apple TV 4 or Mac.

This application do several things:
- Test network bandwidth (connect two devices to one wifi network, start the app and test your network bandwidth in one tap). You don't need an internet connection for tests.
- Test network bandwidth not only in one network, if there is ip connectivity between them.
- Scan your network to detect all devices in it. Also you can write down all known devices and after that you can easily track down all new (possibly rogue) devices in your network. As well you can monitor availability of hosts in your network just by tapping on them.
- Ping host in easy way (really handy bookmarks for frequently used addresses).
- Review measurement history with colorful and informative charts.
- Collects your suggestions about improvements and new features that you think will be handy.

Attention!!!
If you use 2 wifi devices to measure network bandwidth between them, the result will be less than, if you measure network bandwidth between wifi device and ethernet device(for example MacBook connected to router with wired connection). This will happen because two wifi devices will transfer data to each other and they will share wifi bandwidth.

If you want to know maximum wifi network bandwidth for one wifi client, you need to use MacBook as a second device, and you should connect it to your network using wired connection.

Nice

Best app I got for testing bendwidth on local wifi router. It only works if you are on the same local network and not a guest network on your wifi. Tests your wifi to router connection speed... One of the devices are server with other being client... Awesome. Need better instructions tough.


Fantastic

Simple solution for a lan test! Would be great if you could add a log of previous tests.


No instructions

No instructions. No Help. Can't figure how to use it. $.99 down the tube.

This app requires to be started on 2 Apple devices then hit Start button on one of them. The weirdest things is that I got speed results between devices measured by this app different than results measured by the famous high precision speed test by Ookla between one device and the internet. Have a look at the numbers: Service/download/upload in Mbits/s: WiFi SpeedTest/10.32/14.34 Ookla SpeedTest/24.48/11.2 The upload 11.2 here is limited by the isp while the number 24.48 says that my router is allowing this download speed from the net to reach my iPhone where this speed is measured. On the other hand, this app sends files from one device to another, which means the download speed won't be far from the upload speed coz the upload for one is the download for another device. Short and brief, either the numbers measured by this app are wrong or my router needs the upload speed to be tweaked! I support the first opinion.


What...?

The app doesn't do anything. I have no problem paying $0.99 for something I'll use for 5 seconds to test me new network, but this just literally doesn't do squat. All it did was ping 192.168.1.1.


Good but crashes on iOS 8.3

I think this app has a unique wifi speed testing function,but the version 2.1 can't run on iOS 8.3. I hope you can fix this bug asap


App crashes on 8.3 :-(

Fix please!!


Great App

Wish there was a Windows version


Works fine

The test on the screen. It is difficult to read. Was hopping it would include channel usage.


Two devices?

Device discovery is nice but it's annoying to have to connect two devices to test wifi speed.
