About Wiremapper
Wiremapper is an application for running network tests using the Pockethernet hardware.
Features:
Quicktest feature which is a single-button test-everything sensible mode.
If you have a wiremap inserted it will run a wiremap and otherwise it
will run link/poe tests
Pair the pockethernet once with your regular bluetooth menu and
Wiremapper will deal with connecting for you. There's a dropdown
in the header to switch between paired pockethernets if you have
multiple (showing bluetooth device aliases set in the regular bluetooth
menu)
Run a custom test with multiple result "slots", this is mainly for testing
a complete office building and exporting a .csv file with the results for
each ethernet outlet in the building.
Responsive application that should work on any phone/tablet/laptop/desktop
