CLUSTER CONNECTED-DEVICES-NETWORK-2 · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2022-04-22

Wi-Fi network scanner apps

This cluster consists of mobile and network utility apps that scan home Wi-Fi networks to list connected devices, test speed/latency/ping, and support basic troubleshooting such as identifying unauthorized devices or recommending a channel. Its dated history before the index start is sparse: single entries appear in March and October 2011, then a long gap, followed by three entries in April and August 2022. smart-campus-wifi-monitor is listed as the top traction leader, ahead of hogwatch and gil-netscan-ios; their star counts are 0, 0, and 3 respectively.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 8 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
