Hi all,
as my wifi does more and more degenerate, I look for a tool/package where I can see the load on the channels. I just want to avoid going kali for this look.
Does debian offer such a pack?
Inside your router's admin pages unless it don't support that.
Tomato, dd-wrt, openwrt, router firmware can do it also.
linssid, kismet might help also (not optimizing as far as I know)
thank you piper,
the router is access limited (have to migrate, time needed), kismet et. al. are the tools, will dpkg search them!
I just use iwconfig for a onetime short look on quality and current bandwith, not for monitoring. Perhaps these pages are helpful:

Some of the tools mentioned (bmon,wavemon,bwm-ng...) are apt-gettable.
There is also an awesome tool that does the job on android, called Wifi Analyzer.
