Description
Settle checks Wi‑Fi automatically when you connect and puts a simple answer in your Mac menu bar: can you work here? Click to see what to expect from websites, calls, and large files. Open Details for speed and response time. For calls, Settle looks at how the network performs under load, not just download speed.
