App that shows more Wifi detail

Support & Help Requests
#1

Is there an app for Mate that shows more detail of the Wifi signal? I haven't found one in Synaptic or using google search. All that I have showing now is the Mate Netspeed Preferences which isn't helpful to me.

What I'm looking for is an app that has an icon in the activity bar that when clicked will show me ALL the wifi stations my wifi adapter is receiving. Sort of something like what Cinnamon and Unity have.

Does Mate have an app like that? If so, where do I find it?

Thanks.

Don't have an app but ... sudo nmcli dev wifi will list all neighbor wifi with signal, bars, security.

Okay, that's a start. Can you write some magic code that'll put it up in the activity bar and make it a clickable discovery app? I'll give you a cookie! And for another cookie make it look less crude then the Term output?

Thanks!
