I have used spreadsheets, conditional formatting and produced a nice heat map. Cheap and easy.

I also think it was ~$45K or so. Cheaper and more labor intensive....Excel spreadsheet and another guy?

I think the vendor will be installing UniFi APs but still waiting for confirmation. I am taking my tripod equipped with two AP's to send out test signals in 2.4GHz and 5GHz, another two running spectrum analysis in both bands. I will have my Channelyzer device on laptop and three tablets running three different site survey programs to measure signals, SNR and data rates. They have one Linksys AP right now but now need to flood large warehouse for scanners and inventory tracking sensors. When I first went there to scope out place, I used my phone and locked into Linksys. At furthest point I still had a -88dBm signal so even though place is large I don't think it needs 50 AP's as Cisco rep told them. Any ideas? muchas garcias en minifaldas Jaime Solorza Wireless Systems Architect 915-861-1390
