@SWAGESC I just noticed this PR, and also see that you've closed it. Was there a technical issue with this? Do you still want it merged? I haven't tried it yet...

it is my first Pull Request ever. I thought i found an error. I will reopen it.

P.S. Love that project... hope there will be more Progress. An Open Source Heatmap is a thing that every Administrator needs.

I agree that the iwconfig quality and rssi (signal strength) aren't reliable. For my own purposes, I relied on the actual, real-world iperf3 transfer rate maps.
