Advanced WiFi Network Device Controller
A powerful, modern desktop application for managing and controlling devices connected to your WiFi network. Throttle or normalize internet access for any device with a single click.
Zee-Cut is a network management tool inspired by NetCut, built with Python and a modern dark-themed GUI. It allows you to scan your local WiFi network for connected devices and control their internet access using ARP-based traffic management.
Whether you need to limit bandwidth-hogging devices or manage network access on your own WiFi, Zee-Cut provides an intuitive, one-click solution.
⚠️ Legal Notice: This tool is designed exclusively for use on networks you own and administer. Unauthorized use on networks you do not own is illegal and unethical. The developers assume no liability for misuse.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| 🔍 Network Scanning | Multi-method device discovery (ARP table, ping sweep, Scapy ARP broadcast) |
| 🚫 Device Throttling | Slow down or completely block internet access for any device via ARP spoofing |
| ✅ One-Click Restore | Instantly restore normal connectivity for throttled devices |
| 📋 Device Information | View IP address, MAC address, and hostname for every connected device |
| 🛡️ Auto-Elevation | Automatically requests Administrator privileges on launch |
| 🎨 Modern Dark UI | Sleek, dark-themed interface built with CustomTkinter |
| 📦 Portable EXE | Single-file executable — no installation required |
| 🔄 Safe Cleanup | Automatically restores all devices when the application is closed |
Before using Zee-Cut, ensure you have the following installed:
- Python 3.10+ — Download Python
- Npcap (Required for network scanning)
- Download Npcap
- During installation, check ✅ "Install Npcap in WinPcap API-compatible mode"
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ifauzeee/Zee-Cut.git
cd Zee-Cut
# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txtpython main.pyrun.batDownload Zee-Cut.exe from the Releases page, then right-click → Run as Administrator.
Note: Administrator privileges are required for ARP operations. The application will prompt for elevation automatically.

Zee-Cut uses ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) Spoofing to control network traffic:
┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐
│ Target │◄────────►│ Zee-Cut │◄────────►│ Gateway │
│ Device │ Spoofed │ (Your PC) │ Spoofed │ Router │
│ │ ARP │ │ ARP │ │
└─────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └─────────────┘
- Sends spoofed ARP replies to the target device, claiming to be the gateway
- Sends spoofed ARP replies to the gateway, claiming to be the target
- Traffic is intercepted and disrupted, causing lag or disconnection
- Sends correct ARP replies with the real MAC addresses
- Network tables are repaired and normal connectivity is restored
Zee-Cut employs three scanning techniques for maximum device detection:
| Method | Description | Reliability |
|---|---|---|
ARP Table (arp -a) |
Reads Windows' existing ARP cache | ⭐⭐⭐ Highest |
| Ping Sweep | Pings all IPs (1-254) in parallel to populate ARP table | ⭐⭐ High |
| Scapy ARP Scan | Broadcasts ARP requests across the subnet | ⭐⭐ High |
