LAN Wi-Fi Manager 2.3.1: close lifecycle races

Ubuntu and macOS now create the management webview on demand and release WebKit memory when returning to the tray. Monitoring continues without a window, and tray-launched updates are safely carried into a fresh window.

Ubuntu production verification: hidden startup has no WebKit children; post-retirement PSS stayed at 86,766 and 95,310 KiB after two open/retire cycles.


Download

  • Windows 10 / 11 — download LanWifiManager.exe and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway), or update from inside the app.
  • Ubuntu 24.04 — download LanWifiManager_2.3.1_amd64.deb, then run sudo apt install ./LanWifiManager_2.3.1_amd64.deb in the download folder and open LAN Wi-Fi Manager from the app list.
  • macOS 13.6 or later — open LanWifiManager_2.3.1_universal.dmg and drag the app to Applications. Open it: when macOS says it "could not verify" the app, click Done, then System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway and enter your password (needed again after every update). Allow the one-time switching helper when the app asks. Needs an administrator account.

The macOS build is a preview: it has not yet been tested on a real Mac.

Windows app version 2.3.1 · Mac and Ubuntu app version 2.3.1.

The app includes Overpass, licensed separately under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. Its full licence is available in Settings → Updates & about.

LAN Wi-Fi Manager 2.3.0: Startup apps and Services

Resources has two new views next to Overview, on Windows, Ubuntu and macOS
(macOS is still a preview).

  • Startup apps: see what starts when you sign in, and turn apps on or off.
    On Windows, Store apps are managed by Windows itself: they are listed as
    "Managed by Windows", and Open Startup settings takes you there.
  • Services: start, stop or restart background services and choose how they
    start. Services the system needs are protected, stopping a service first
    tells you which other services stop with it, and every change is written
    to the Log.
  • On Ubuntu and macOS, changing a system service asks for your password.

Download

  • Windows 10 / 11 — download LanWifiManager.exe and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway), or update from inside the app.
  • Ubuntu 24.04 — download LanWifiManager_2.3.0_amd64.deb, then run sudo apt install ./LanWifiManager_2.3.0_amd64.deb in the download folder and open LAN Wi-Fi Manager from the app list.

LAN Wi-Fi Manager 2.2.3: readable dialogs at high scaling, tidier Status text

Two fixes for the Windows app.

  • On displays scaled above 100 % (common on laptops), the message in the
    app's dialogs, such as End task, the Wi-Fi name question or closing the
    window, no longer grows over the dialog's buttons.
  • Status: words in the route details and summary lines are spaced normally
    again, instead of sitting about three spaces apart.

Download

  • Windows 10 / 11 — download LanWifiManager.exe and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway), or update from inside the app.
  • Ubuntu 24.04 — download LanWifiManager_2.2.0_amd64.deb, then run sudo apt install ./LanWifiManager_2.2.0_amd64.deb in the download folder and open LAN Wi-Fi Manager from the app list.

LAN Wi-Fi Manager 2.2.2: Overpass on every launch, small-window fixes

The Windows app now shows its Overpass typeface every time it starts. Until
now it often fell back to Segoe UI.

  • Spaces between words and numbers no longer shrink away, so the CPU name
    reads "Ryzen 7 7800X3D", not "Ryzen77800X3D".
  • Resources: the dots between details have even space on both sides, and on
    a narrow window each panel's summary moves under its title instead of being
    cut off.
  • Status: no more horizontal scrollbar when the window is at its smallest.

Download

  • Windows 10 / 11 — download LanWifiManager.exe and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway), or update from inside the app.

LAN Wi-Fi Manager 2.2.1: updates through winget, Scoop and Chocolatey

The Windows app now notices when winget, Scoop or Chocolatey installed it
and leaves updating to that package manager, so its records stay correct.

  • Settings → Updates & about shows which package manager installed the app.
  • When a new version is out, the app tells you to quit it and run the
    package manager's update command, and Copy update command puts that
    command on the clipboard.
  • Downloads from GitHub keep the one-click in-app update.

Download

  • Windows 10 / 11 — download LanWifiManager.exe and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway), or update from inside the app.
  • Ubuntu 24.04 — download LanWifiManager_2.2.0_amd64.deb, then run sudo apt install ./LanWifiManager_2.2.0_amd64.deb in the download folder and open LAN Wi-Fi Manager from the app list.

Redesigned Status, Resources, Log and Settings on Windows, Ubuntu and macOS

  • See CPU usage per core and live memory, disk, network and GPU charts.
  • Inspect process details with sortable heat indicators and task controls.
  • Read route-aware logs and navigate settings with the new station-line layout.
  • Improve keyboard navigation, screen-reader information, small-window scrolling,
    packet-loss markers and route status under a VPN or on another adapter.
  • Follow the Windows app theme and support light and dark layouts across platforms.

    Finder, ready to drag to Applications.

Resources tab like Windows on Ubuntu and macOS, and Check for updates

  • Ubuntu and macOS: the Resources graphs now always fit the window (they no
    longer grow past the bottom), with a value scale, a 60-second time scale,
    per-core CPU values, totals under each value, and the values of any second
    when you point at a graph.
  • Details now show only the chosen resource: its own numbers (CPU speeds and
    caches, memory breakdown, GPU clock and memory, disk activity and response
    time) and its own columns in the process list, each app with its icon.
  • Network details: every adapter's addresses, gateway, DNS, MAC, link speed and
    Wi-Fi signal, and each app's download and upload.
  • GPU: Intel graphics on Ubuntu now show their load, and Macs get the GPU card.
  • New "Check for updates" button in Settings > Updates & about.
