Features & Capabilities

WiFi Band is a handy Android app that instantly notifies users about their connected WiFi network's SSID and the radio bandwidth in use—either 2.4GHz or 5GHz. This is particularly useful in environments with multiple access points supporting dual radio bands, such as enterprise settings or modern home networks, enabling quick verification of the current connection type.

Beyond basic notifications, WiFi Band offers a detailed overview of nearby access points, including their SSID, BSSID, signal strength, channel, and radio frequency. Users can also access IP and radio details of the connected access point. An experimental feature allows users to set WiFi Band to prefer 5GHz connections when available, optimizing network performance effortlessly.
