Assessing WiFi performance throughout a site
The general procedure for a Site Assessment test is:
1
Either place one WiFi Advisor in close proximity to where the Wireless Access Point (or Residential Gateway) will be
installed or connect one WiFi Advisor
to
the Access Point.
2
Take a second WiFi Advisor along with your iPad to the location where WiFi performance is to be assessed. The test thor-
oughly evaluates WiFi performance between the two locations.
3
Move to the next location of interest and repeat the test to the Access Point.
4
Continue until all locations of interest have been performance tested.
5
If desired, the test results are saved to the active job or work ticket or associated with a new job. (See the
section for more details regarding work flow with job / tickets).
