What was the name of the wifi app you used for the iPhone? I've been wanting something like that for mine and I just don't have the time to go sifting through all the apps that are available.

We used Cisco 1231 WAPs that we purchased used from EBay at about $160 each. We put them mostly at the end of hallways with flat patch antennae pointed toward the classrooms. With that setup they read about 150 feet down the hallways and into classrooms. Before placement, we placed a test unit at the end of the hall and, using our cell phones with a wifi analysis ap - one on an iPhone and one on an HTC Droid Incredible, we tested the signal to make sure that it covered the area we needed. After noting how far that WAP covered, we moved the test unit to the next location and tested from there. We averaged about 5 WAPs per building with more at the high school.

For those of you who have done this before, how do you determine how many access points you needed and where to place them?
