Are there any tools specifically for scanning/characterising WiFi signals and/or are there any replacements for Network Manager that make handling WiFi connections easier?
You could do a scan from command line (as root):
iw DEVICE scan
Similar to the above is iwlist. Usage iwlist DEVICE scan
I also use linux app Wifi Radar which works OK. I also recommend Android App Wifi Analyser
This page lists some perhaps useful commands or utilities http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-find-out-wireless-network-speed-signal-s...
