  It really depends on your Operating System.

  On macOS, someone below recommended "WiFi Signal", USD 5. Not so fully featured, I assume, but free is Wireless Diagnostics. Ignore the popup, and go to Windows -> Info/Scan/Performance (it's in System -> Library -> CoreServices -> Applications, but I start it via Spotlight)

      That's at least one OSI layer north of what was being asked.
