WirelessToolbox

A portable diagnostic platform that makes Wi-Fi performance, RF interference, and crowded spectrum visible—wherever the problem happens.

Wireless Toolbox includes the hardware appliance, Wi-Fi adapter and a suite of browser-operated diagnostic tools. External radio receivers are not included.

Diagnostic platform

Purpose-built around Raspberry Pi, powered by Nuts About Nets' software applications for General RF, Wireless Pro Audio, and Wi-Fi.

Browser operated

Use any browser on a phone, tablet, Mac, or PC. Connect wirelessly to the appliance to control the tools and view results.

No client app to install.

Real measurements

Known radios, controlled by the appliance. Supported today: RF Explorer and RTL-SDR dongles.

Planned support: HackRF and tinySA. External radios are sold separately.

Introductory Price: $195

Practical and affordable for everyday field work.

A complete diagnostic toolkit

Real hardware. Powerful software.

Use your own phone, tablet, or computer. RF Explorer and RTL-SDR receivers are currently supported, with support for HackRF and tinySA planned for a future update. All external radio receivers are sold separately and are not included with the Wireless Toolbox appliance.

The idea

Stop guessing what the wireless world is doing.

Wireless Toolbox with its dual-antenna Wi-Fi adapter sending measurement data wirelessly to a phone and laptop

Wireless trouble is frustrating because its causes are invisible. A slow connection, unreliable microphone, or intermittent signal can look like a software problem when the real culprit is congestion or interference in the air.

Wireless Toolbox is a diagnostic platform that brings measurement hardware, analysis software, and browser-based visualization together in one small field appliance. It gathers the evidence, performs the analysis, and presents the results in a clear interface served directly to your browser.

The device does the measuring. Your browser becomes the display.

That means no special desktop installation and no dependency on what a phone or laptop happens to expose. The same tools work from the bench, a network closet, a venue, or anywhere else the problem lives.

The result is a practical field instrument rather than a folder full of utilities. It makes purpose-built wireless diagnostics practical for everyday work.

A simpler workflow

Measure close to the problem. See the answer on any screen.

Wireless Toolbox coordinates the radio work inside the appliance and uses server-sent events to stream live measurements and charts to a consistent, approachable workspace in any modern browser.

PLACE

Take it to the problem

Set the compact appliance where the network, signal, or interference issue is actually occurring.

CONNECT

Open it from your device

Use the browser already on your phone, tablet, Mac, or Windows PC. The Toolbox serves the interface.

DIAGNOSE

Choose the right instrument

Run focused diagnostics for Wi-Fi, general RF, or wireless pro audio from a single menu.

Inside the Toolbox

A family of diagnostics, built on one measurement platform.

Attach the hardware needed for the job and choose the instrument from the Toolbox menu.

The appliance and supported radios

Purposeful hardware. Flexible radio support.

Wireless Toolbox brings Wi-Fi diagnostics, measurement control, and analysis together in one appliance. Connect a supported external radio to use the RF spectrum and wireless-audio tools that work with it.

RF Explorer and RTL-SDR are supported today. Support for tinySA and HackRF is planned, giving you more radio options as the platform grows.

External radios are not included with the appliance. RF Explorer, RTL-SDR, tinySA, and HackRF are separate devices. Support for a radio means compatibility, not that it comes with your Wireless Toolbox.

Built on experience

A new appliance, backed by two decades of wireless diagnostic software.

Wireless Toolbox is a project of Nuts About Nets. Its instruments grow from years of Windows and macOS products used to visualize RF, troubleshoot Wi-Fi, and coordinate wireless audio. The appliance brings that experience into a portable, cohesive platform designed for the way wireless work happens now.

Ready for the field

Powerful diagnostics. Portable hardware. Clear answers.

Wireless Toolbox brings a dedicated hardware appliance and a suite of diagnostic software applications together in one portable toolkit. Connect wirelessly from your phone, tablet, or computer to investigate Wi-Fi performance, RF interference, and wireless audio—from any browser.
