More to help techs help customers troubleshoot. So non wifi interference would be a good thing to display. But so would SSID...

If WiFi is the concern, you need a WiFi based spectrum analyzer so it can see SSID’s and things like that. Something like what SAF sells of course will see the signal, but it won’t be able to distinguish SSID’s. But if you want to be able to reliably pick up non-WiFi based interference, you need a real spectrum analyzer (rather than a WiFi chipset in spectrum analyzer mode). Are your techs making heat maps for projects, or just helping with in home WiFi readings? More on the application would help I guess :-) Daniel White | Managing Director SAF North America LLC Cell: (303) 746-3590 Skype: danieldwhite E-mail: [email protected] From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chuck McCown via Af Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2014 10:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [AFMUG] Spectrum Analyzer What is a good lower cost spectrum analyzer to help techs sniff out customer’s wifi coverage?
