I have a customer that has requested a tool WLAN analyzer that can be used on multi platforms. I am testing a bunch of tools available on the internet but they all fall short of the requirements. Any thought?

 Here is what they want:

 

Customer is looking for a wireless device utility that we can install on common wireless devices that will provide the wireless device user with a simple view of the following wireless information:

Mac address.
IP address.
Radio channel connected.
Data rate connected.
Tx upload bandwidth rate.
Rx download bandwidth rate.
RTT to a specific destination (can be fixed ; i.e. ping or similar).
Date and Time of above test.

 

The utility must provide the results in either a summary list format, or a chart/graph format, or both.

 

Utility cannot be proprietary to any wireless network platform (i.e. agnostic to any wlan solution).

 

Utility must operate on and within 802.11 standards. (i.e. 802.11b/g/a/N ; 2.4ghz and 5ghz ; note: 802.11ac support is a plus).

 

Utility must use and connect via the device’s configured wireless connection (ssid ; auth method ; etc.). ; no addl user entries required.  

 

The utility must be capable of being launched in 4 movements/clicks or less.

 

The utility results must be able to be forwarded via email (via direct link, or as an attachment).

 

This utility must be able to run on one or more of the following:

Windows laptops (any WinXP ; Win7 ; Win8).
Apple Macbooks (any sold since 2011).
Apple Ipads (any models sold since 2011).
Apple itouches (any sold since 2011).
Android tablets (any sold since 2012).

 

Delivery and support considerations –

Customer is willing to sign a license agreement if needed.
A freeware utility is acceptable, if some reference or support is available.
Utility from another company (partner, 3rd party, etc.) is acceptable.
