This feature is for advanced users who want to do more than finding a strong Internet connection. Instead other Mac OS X El Capitan users may be better off not using the Wifi network analyzer and just use the Wi-Fi menu to find available wireless networks to join.

  1. Open Finder
  2. Hold Command+Shift+G at the same time and type the path: /System/Library/CoreServices/
  3. Locate “Wi-Fi Diagnostics” (or “Wireless Diagnostics”, depending on OS X version) and drag and drop it into Launchpad or the OS X Dock for easy access

 

What to do if the app is called “Wi-Fi Diagnostics”:

  1. Launch Wi-Fi Diagnostics
  2. Hold Command+N to open the new “Network Utilities” window
  3. Select the “Wi-Fi Scan” tab to get started with the wireless stumbler tool

 

The Wi-Fi analyzer tool has a set default that will start scanning and displaying the found information. You can manually turn on Active Scan or Passive Scan mode to constantly search for new networks by clicking on the “Scan.”

You can use the wifi analyzer on Mac OS X El Capitan for many different reasons. A majority of Mac OS X users use the wireless stumbler for optimizing networks or finding new network connections. You can also use the wifi network analyzer to monitor network traffic and send that data to your computer.
