What Wi-Fi Toolkit is for
Wi-Fi Toolkit is a set of network diagnosis tools from TP-LINK SYSTEMS INC. The developer says it is meant to protect your privacy when you join public Wi-Fi. It works as a single place to check how a connection is performing and what else is on it.
The app suits people who want to understand their own connection, whether that is a home network, a shared network or a public hotspot. It also covers remote access to a home network through a VPN.
Checking signal strength, security and speed
A single tap runs checks on Wi-Fi signal strength, network security, internet speed and latency. The results come from the same run, so you do not have to open separate tools for each measure.
Speed testing can also be run while you play a racing game, which lets you see what the connection delivers during a latency-sensitive activity. Ping tests measure how long your connection takes to reach target services that you specify.
Finding devices and cameras on your network
The device scan lists everything connected to the same network. It is useful for spotting unfamiliar devices on a shared or public connection.
The app also looks for surrounding cameras. The developer presents this as a way to protect your privacy, since cameras on a nearby network can be a privacy concern.
Connecting to a home VPN
You can set up a VPN by importing a VPN configuration into the app. Once it is connected, your remote traffic to your home network is encrypted through the VPN server on your home network.
The developer describes this as a quick setup. It depends on having a VPN server on your home router and a configuration file to import.
