Connection Information SuiteInstantly see how your network is really performing
Ever wonder why your video call is choppy, even though you're paying for fast internet? Curious if your Mac is connected to the slower 2.4 GHz band instead of the faster 5 GHz one?
That happened to me - my Mac kept defaulting to a weak, congested Wi-Fi channel, crippling my connection speed. I had no easy way to see what was happening at a glance.
I built Network Connection Information to save myself from this frustration - and now it can save you too.
