Late quick follow-up to your questions from our other thread.
> How exactly is that number calculated?
It is a difference between the signal level of this network and the max signal level of another network.
> How does NetSpot determine co-channel AP’s when each AP is broadcasting multiple SSID’s?
If the BSSIDs of the networks differ only in the last digit, they are considered to be one AP and the interference is not calculated in this case.
> Is the number on the pin always representative of the ‘worst-case’ scenario, ie worst-cochannel AP’s?
Yes, it is.
> How does the SIR heatmap (under passive-scanning) differ from the ‘Troubleshooting–>overlapping channels’ heatmap?
The Troubleshooting heatmaps are the same as visualizations but divided into critical levels instead of gradient colors.
