Ratings and reviews

Probably one of the best network apps I've tried so far. It has all the options I want and more. Definitely made for more advanced network users compared to something like Google WiFi but I like that about it. It's shown me a lot about my network and what the outside is doing to my devices. Already blocked one malicious attempt at my network. I would recommend this to others.
