Motivation

This tool was initially coded to help find the idlest 2.4GHz channel in order to connect a ZigBee device to HomeAssistant in ideal conditions.

Some areas can be very busy, I live in a city center where I get an average 80 devices per scan.

Pairing a ZigBee devices in such conditions can prove difficult, especially when the chosen channel is overlapped by nerby WiFi devices.
