User Reviews

  • Does the job nicely.
  • This program works and is useful. The UI leaves something to be desired, at least when running on Linux Mint Cinnamon. Sourceforge offers version 3.6.1 but, oddly, Mint's repositories has a version that seems to be newer. The program itself, when installed from the Mint repository, identifies itself merely as version '3.6.', but `apt list linssid` shows '3.6-7build1'; and trying to install the Sourceforge version over the repository version generates a warning about a downgrade.
  • Great WIFI tool. Compiled version 3.6, running on raspbian stretch on the raspberry pi platforms. Very useful.
  • Great!
  • Simply what I was looking for, a simple and easy tool to scan spots from a wifi network with easy configuration and graphical intuitive interface (time line) for linux (Ubuntu). It worked like a charm just out of the box! Great!!
