Someone should create an app that detects wifi APs that are transmitting at high power so you can track them down.

It would be super useful for someone like me where there are dozens of different APs in an apartment building all competing with each other. Then I could kindly go to my neighbor and ask/assist them in turning theirs down.




I've used this one before, and it does a good job: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wi...

It's great for finding unused channels for your AP.
