Show access point connections?

in Fing App

I have four access points in my home. Can the Fing app, through the help of the Fing box show which AP each device is connected to and its strength? Maybe even show the AP channel numbers and strengths? Currently the app can tell you which AP the phone is connected to so this must be possible.

    Hi @Pimples thanks for asking your question.
    Unfortunately no, Fing app nor the Fingbox will tell you which AP a wireless device is connected to directly.  Typically you could use the HUD of the AP's to determine what is connected to it directly.

    I guess this is more of a feature request. If I walk around the house I can currently tell from the Fing iOS app what AP I’m connected to so it gave me the idea that this could be possible for all devices in the same subnet.
