Mac power users have known about this feature for over a decade. Theres also a pretty powerful wifi diagnostic tool in the coreservices folder, if you're going to be digging around in there anyway.
- csixty4 13y agoIn Mavericks at least, you can hold Option and click on the Wifi icon in the menu bar to get an "Open Wireless Diagnostics" option in the menu. And you're right -- it's pretty handy when you're surrounded by college apartments that all have their own routers.
- Luyt 13y agoDo you mean the "Network Diagnostic" application?
- yardie 13y agoYes, that is it. I walk around my flat with it open to find low SNR spots. It also helped me diagnose a failing wifi radio chip.
