That seemed to improve it. However having major problems with the device at the moment that I need to fix widgets not working and hig battery drain. Will do some more tests later.

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

New day, new version, new features.

Thank you very much for a great tool :)

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

looks nice ... will try it out ..

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

Well.. if you have any ideas, I'm all ears. I can't think of a nice way to visually represent overlapping data.

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

Only idea i can steal from someone else is how its done in Inssider. Now you have 2 screens; Channels and Timeline, you could add another called Sort or Filter.
This screen could represent radioboxes for ssids in a column/spreadsheet-like page so you could sort on eg. signalstrength, then remove the ones hat your not interested in.

...and maybe a way to maximize the graphs to the display or zoom in some way(s)

IF .. Filter is a way; pleas make sort by: ssid / signal strength / channel

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

why does a color parabola extend in a range between two numbers?
what does that range represent?
wouldn't a bar graph be more appropriate for the purpose?

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

Each channel takes up 5 channels total width in channel bleed. The Parabola is representative of the interchannel cross bleed and cross talk.

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

In fact, AFAIK, each channel is 22 (some say 20?) MHz wide, while channels are 5MHz apart (except from channel 14).

A better question would be: why not use a square for each channel... Well, supposing that some channels use DSSS the arc is a correct representation. For FHS it would need to be a square (but 802.11 doesn't use FHS) and I'm not sure about OFDM (most probably a square too).

While not much informative, have a look here.

Re: [Announce] WifiEye
 

Just to chime in on this, it should be resolved now, a properly packaged pyqt is now in extras-testing. Thanks for this excellent tool !
