Join the router's Wi-Fi
Your phone has to be on the router's own network. No internet needed.
How it works
How it reaches your router
Your phone joins the router's Wi-Fi, and Baseband talks to the router's own admin interface. Nothing goes through us.
What it needs
Three things, and you are in.
Use the admin password
The one on the router's sticker, not the Wi-Fi password.
No account
Nothing leaves your phone. No sign-up, no server, no cloud.
Every time you open it
Four steps, then you are looking at your router.
1
It finds the router
Baseband pings the gateway on the Wi-Fi you are joined to and works out which router answered.
2
It signs in
The admin password is kept in the phone's secure storage, so you type it once per router.
3
It reads the status
Connection, signal, devices, usage and whatever messages the router is holding.
4
It offers what is confirmed
A control appears only when that model is known to support it. Anything untested says so.
What it will not do
The limits, in plain words.
Reach your router from far away
You have to be on its Wi-Fi. There is no remote access and no tunnel to buy.
Keep anything on a server
There is no account and no server of ours. Everything sits on the phone.
Make your connection faster
It shows you what the router reports. It cannot add data or speed you do not have.
