Hey Product Hunt. I'm James, the maker of WhyFi - thanks for taking the time to check it out 😃 I built the app to answer the age old question: why is my Wi-Fi connection absolutely rubbish and/or not working right now? Personally I've wanted this for years! Here are the highlights: - Built for macOS and lives in your menu bar - Continuously monitors your connection - Separates issues across Wi-Fi, router, ISP, and DNS - Run a speed test anytime - Get advice on how to fix issues - Copy your Wi-Fi
Diagnosed my Wi-Fi issue in about 30 seconds. My ISP has some explaining to do 👀"
Awesome little app, been using it for a few weeks and it's so handy when moving, going to a new cowork or cafe. The dev James is super responsive to ideas and issue. A great indie app!
I can't to see if this works :)
Very helpful to know more about why my horrible wifi doesnt work well
