AirPort Utility is also very handy as a Wi-Fi scanner, irrespective of whether it’s used to control the excellent Apple devices. You need to enable it in Settings, but once enabled, you can scan for every nearby network and learn its channels, MAC address and RSSI. Good for troubleshooting, and also learning what the coverage is going to be like. Every impression is logged, and you can output a table for sharing. I often prefer to use this interface to the one in Settings, which is much noisier. Of course you need Settings to join networks, but learning about them first with your iOS device is definitely very cool.
