Bug#1087536: O: linssid -- graphical wireless scanner
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: linssid@packages.debian.org, Warren Severin <wseverin@warsev.com>
Control: affects -1 + src:linssid
I intend to orphan the linssid package. The upstream seems dead.
The package description is:
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 Wi-Fi Analyzer (for Android).
.
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.
.
Some features:
.
- Table of locally receivable attach points with many columns of different
information and sortable and movable columns.
- Adjustable speed, real-time update.
- Graphs of signal strength by channel and over time.
- AP bandwidth displayed.
- Works on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels.
