Windows Users

Windows users have an extra step required before this app can be used.

Initial Setup

  1. Clone this repo to your hard drive:
    git clone https://github.com/angela-d/wifi-network-testing.git
  2. Navigate to the directory location in your terminal & run ./nettest.sh or run /path/to/nettest.sh or drag the nettest.sh script to your terminal and then hit enter
  • After the initial dependency check, the script will load with the menu on each run

That's all there is to it!

Using It

Same as step 2 on the initial install (above).

Typical commands:

/path/to/nettest.sh
  • Replace /path/to with the path on your system where you cloned this repo to.
ntest
  • Replace ntest with your symlink or alias (shortcut).

  • Or see post-setup (below) on how to create a shortcut and call it from anywhere.

  • See the customizing wiki for details on how to expand its use or customize features and troubleshooting.

Channel Lookup

This particular test is currently on Linux only

Run the script with the c argument to see how occupied a channel is:

wifi channel lookup

Run:

/path/to/nettest.sh c

or

ntest c

(replace ntest for your symlink or alias)

Post-Setup

For ease of use, consider adding a symlink to your installation.
