We had to clone them, edit the cloned templates/profiles, and then find out where to apply them. Within the ML Insights tab on the menu you’ll find a neat feature they call Network 360. It allows you to import floor plans to create a network topology map for documentation and monitoring, plus you can place simulated APs to see a visual prediction of the Wi-Fi coverage. Part of the ML Insights is also Client 360 to give you an idea of client performance.
We have vast experience in network security and work with software and equipment from companies such as Air Defense, Airtight and AirMagnet, which are some of the best in the world. All of this is essential for successful deployment of the wireless network for any event. When we test it, we can virtually see how the network signal flows throughout the building and check for signal strength, data rates, signal-to-noise ratio and physical interference. Then, we can virtually move or change the levels or locations of any of the access points and see the results in real-time to help dial-in the ideal design and deployment of the network hardware and power levels. We will first do a virtual site survey using extremely sophisticated network modeling software, which helps us plot out the initial deployment of access points and their configuration. We start by loading the floor plans of your site into the program and the software then assigns specific “RF properties” to all objects and walls in and out of the site, wherever attendees will need signal. Then we place virtual access points throughout the model and assign them their frequencies and power levels, place the antennas, etc.
Throughput was the only test we ran on the four access points, so while we had them we also checked out each one to note its key features and gauge how easy it is to configure. Again, this is a snapshot, and vendors upgrade their devices over time. Four vendors – Extreme, Cisco, EnGenius and Meraki – provided access points for our test. One of the most anticipated features of Wi-Fi 6 wireless routers is improved throughput over their Wi-Fi 5 predecessors, and we wanted to check whether they deliver. Dell EMC SD-WAN Solution powered by VMware combines purpose-built networking appliances from Dell Technologies with industry-leading SD-WAN software from VMware. Reduce complexity and increase productivity with a portfolio of management tools and platforms that help automate tasks and monitor network performance.
- It won’t steer your browser away from malware-hosting pages or phishing sites.
- When last tested, SuperAntiSpyware achieved record scores in all my tests—record lows, that is.
- As noted, SuperAntiSpyware doesn’t include any kind of web-based protection.
- Not surprisingly, it also doesn’t mark unsafe links in search results, the way Norton AntiVirus Plus and others do.
This allows us to perform packet-level inspection necessary to identify difficult to find root-cause issues. All our services are performed by certified wireless network professionals.
The 11 Best Wireless Network Linkedin Groups You Should Join
For every wireless and Ethernet connection test, the results can be sent directly to an email address, or uploaded ot the Link-Live Cloud Service. In addition, this view helps us to determine if the channels are over-utilized and/or subjected to interference and electromagnetic noise (e.g. microwave ovens, wireless devices, Bluetooth® communication).
The best and most powerful wireless equipment in the world will not produce a solid, dependable wireless network without a professional site survey being performed first. For remediation or troubleshooting projects, we combine our Wi-Fi site surveys and RF Spectrum analysis with Layer 2-7 protocol analysis using WildPackets OmniPeek or equivalent.
Wireless Networking Planning And Site Survey
This allows us to then see a working model of exactly how the network would function. The first and most important step in implementing any wireless network, for permanent deployment or a temporary indoor or outdoor event, begins with the site survey.
Our experience and knowledge will help create the right system based on your technical needs and business constraints. We use state-of-the-art predictive modeling (hyperlink to services – predictive modeling page) and refined methodologies based upon a scientific approach rather than guess-work. We then validate with onsite wireless site surveys and RF Spectrum analysis using professional-grade tools from companies like Ekahau or AirMagnet.
Instant view of measured metrics such as network availability, connectivity, utilization, security settings, rogue hunting, and interference detection. In summary, troubleshooting a Wi-Fi network problem can be a nightmare,taking into considerations the many potential factors inpacting the connection. In the Radio Configurations tab you can setup interference detection called CleanAir and their radio resource management for detecting and adapting to noise and coverage issues. You can also configure data rates for high throughput, configure parameters for media/voice wireless traffic, and general network settings. While configuring our test AP, we found the process and GUI to be a bit complicated, especially for smaller networks. There are a lot of template and profile schemes to help customers with large numbers of APs, but it still seems like configuration could be simplified. One annoyance is that most of the default templates and profiles couldn’t be edited.
