Network diagnostics that speak human language.
Desktop app for network diagnostics, DNS protection, and VPN.
See your full connection path from computer to internet, switch DNS providers in one click,
and connect through VPN — all explained in plain language, not error codes.
Built with Rust + Tauri + React.

Netok — network diagnostics demo

Windows: Ready Android: In progress macOS: Planned iOS: Planned

Why Netok

Most network tools are built for engineers. Netok is built for everyone else.

When your internet stops working, you shouldn't need to know what DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN means. Netok translates that into something useful: what's broken, where, and what to do about it.

Features

🩺 Diagnostics

Computer → Wi-Fi → Router → Internet — step-by-step connection check

💬 Plain Language

No technical jargon — clear answers about what's wrong and how to fix it

🛡️ DNS Protection

Cloudflare, AdGuard, CleanBrowsing, or your own custom servers

🔐 VPN

VLESS, VMess, Shadowsocks, Trojan, WireGuard via sing-box

💻 Device Discovery

Scan your local network and identify devices by brand

⚡ Speed Test

Real-world ratings, not just raw numbers

🛜 Wi-Fi Security

Detect encryption vulnerabilities and network threats

🌍 15 Languages

Full localization including RTL scripts

🌒 Themes

Light and dark mode with system preference support

Download

Download for Windows

Note on Windows SmartScreen

Netok is not yet code-signed. Windows may show a SmartScreen warning on first launch — this is normal for unsigned applications. Click "More info" → "Run anyway" to proceed.

The application is built automatically from source code via GitHub Actions. You can verify the build by checking the release workflow and comparing checksums.

Diagnostics

Computer → Wi-Fi → Router → Internet — see your full connection path step by step. Each node is tested independently so you know exactly where the problem is.

Netok diagnostics — step-by-step connection check

Plain Language

No error codes, no technical jargon. When something breaks, Netok tells you what happened and what to do — in words anyone can understand.

DNS Protection

Switch your DNS provider in one click — Cloudflare, AdGuard, CleanBrowsing, or set your own custom servers. Block ads, malware, and adult content at the network level.

VPN

Connect through VLESS, VMess, Shadowsocks, Trojan, or WireGuard — powered by sing-box. Paste a link, scan a QR code, or import a config file.

Speed Test

Measure your real download and upload speed with human-readable ratings — not just raw numbers.

Wi-Fi Security

Detect weak encryption, open networks, and other vulnerabilities. Know if your Wi-Fi is safe before you connect.

Languages

Netok speaks 15 languages — including right-to-left scripts like Farsi. Every label, every message, every tooltip is fully translated. No half-baked Google Translate patches — each locale is reviewed for natural phrasing.

Supported: English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Polski, Português, Türkçe, Українська, Русский, 日本語, 한국어, 中文, فارسی, and more coming.

Under the Hood

Diagnostic Chain

Each node in the chain runs independent checks — no router admin access needed:

Computerhostname::get() for machine name, get_if_addrs for network interfaces, Windows WLAN API for adapter details.

Wi-Fi — Windows WLAN API (WlanQueryInterface): SSID, signal quality converted to dBm (-90 + quality/2), TX rate, PHY type → Wi-Fi standard, channel and band (2.4/5/6 GHz) from ulChCenterFrequency. Connection type detected from adapter name pattern matching.

Router — Gateway IP parsed from route print (Windows), ip route (Linux), or netstat -nr (macOS). MAC address via Get-NetNeighbor. Vendor identified through longest-prefix OUI lookup against 30,000+ entries compiled from the Wireshark manufacturer database.

Internet — Two checks run in parallel: DNS resolution via trust_dns_resolver (tries one.one.one.one, fallback dns.google) and HTTP reachability via reqwest (tries Cloudflare trace, fallback example.com). Both pass → OK, one passes → Partial, both fail → Fail.

Wi-Fi Security

Four sequential checks, all via Windows WLAN API:

Encryption — Reads dot11AuthAlgorithm + dot11CipherAlgorithm, maps to Open (danger) / WEP, WPA (warning) / WPA2, WPA3 (safe).

Evil Twin Detection — Gets all BSSIDs matching the connected SSID via WlanGetNetworkBssList. Checks the IEEE 802.11 Privacy bit on each AP. If the same SSID has both open and encrypted access points → warning.

ARP Spoofing Detection — Reads the full ARP table via Get-NetNeighbor, builds a MAC → IP mapping. If any non-broadcast MAC maps to multiple IPs including the gateway → danger.

DNS Hijacking Detection — Resolves example.com via the system resolver AND via a raw UDP query to 1.1.1.1. If the IP sets don't overlap → warning.

Overall security status = worst result of the four checks.

Speed Test

Frontend-based, using NDT7 (Network Diagnostic Tool v7) by M-Lab over WebSocket:

  • Server discovery via M-Lab locate API (nearest server, cached 5 min)
  • Download/upload phases ~10 seconds each
  • Ping: median of 3 WebSocket connect/close RTT cycles
  • Latency: mean TCPInfo.SmoothedRTT under load
  • Jitter: mean absolute consecutive difference of SmoothedRTT samples
  • Bufferbloat detection: latency > 3× idle ping

Results mapped to practical tasks:

Task Pass condition
4K Video download ≥ 25 Mbps
Online Gaming ping ≤ 50 ms AND jitter ≤ 30 ms
Video Calls download ≥ 3 Mbps AND ping ≤ 100 ms
HD Video download ≥ 10 Mbps
Music/Podcasts download ≥ 1 Mbps
Social/Web download ≥ 3 Mbps
Email/Messengers download ≥ 0.5 Mbps

Built with

  • Rust — core diagnostics engine
  • Tauri — desktop framework
  • React + TypeScript — UI
  • sing-box — VPN tunneling
