Code an app to do that, Phoon.
It really could be helpful in placement of routers/multipliers.
If you're concerned about wireless congestion, install Acrylic's WiFi Scanner and Analyzer on a wireless PC/laptop, fire it up, and take a look! No, I'm not affiliated with them in any way: https://www.acrylicwifi.com/en/wlan-software/wlan-scanner-acrylic-wifi-free/
Looks pretty cool to me. Might give it a go.
