Alex – NetSpotKeymasterHi Claude, seems like NetSpot shows exactly the config of your nets: 2 nets NET-1 from the first hardware (2.4 and 5 GHz on 6th and 149th channels) and 2 nets from the second hardware similarly on 2.4 and 5 GHz bands.
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterborjam said: But you can still support several brands of wireless access points, and at least some of them can give you client statistics via SNMP
Unfortunately, this won’t work. SNMP is not enough to collect the needed data about signal levels, etc. Assume you have 100+ APs in the area, even if you could poll 10% of them via SNMP, you won’t have a usable heatmap in the end.

Alex – NetSpotKeymasterHi Guillaume, please, check an email from me. I sent you the address of the script that is used for Internet speed tests.
As for local network assessment and iPerf: yes, it’s planned! Probably for NetSpot 2.2+
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterHi again, Ralph! Thanks for the update. I emailed you a couple of minutes ago.
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterIsn’t that what survey snapshots are for?
/help/zone-snapshots/
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterI emailed you the link to latest beta. This bug is definitely fixed in it, it was related to retina displays… the new build will soon be publicly online.
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterDefinitely nothing dumb. Looks like a bug. Most probably it was already fixed in the internal beta, give me some time….
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterWhy not use the download manager? I can assure everyone, the builds on CNET and our website are 1) identical, 2) working 100%
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterMaybe a year ago we got a request from a large US mobile network operator. They wanted to assess the whole coverage of their WiFi networks all over the States. This involves several hundred people measuring towns and districts and producing thousands of reports that were supposed to be joined in one huge coverage map in NetSpot. This is definitely possible, but… not right now. We don’t have the feature right away. NetSpot shows actual coverage, so when you relocate the AP, you get a different map, and it doesn’t correspond to the reality. We are still planning to add reports/snapshots joining. But we won’t be able to release the update this year. Stay tuned.
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterMost probably you just didn’t find the new configuration popup for visualizations… it’s here now: /help/how-do-i-change-the-values-represented-by-the-colors-on-the-map/
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterRalph, that’s a really interesting question. Let me discuss this with our developers and get back to you asap.
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterHi Evan, and Gary. Seems like the issue was resolved by updating Mac OS, am I right?
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterWhen exactly does this error occur? Is it taking place all the time, or randomly? Also, if you could send a report using the “Ask a question…” form directly in the app AFTER you get this error, it would also be quite helpful…
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterAs you can see, it’s only you. Try again. Use a download manager if you want to have a better control over the download process. Try this direct link: http://www.netspotapp.com/download/NetSpot.dmg
Alex – NetSpotKeymasterThanks for reporting this. As far as I can tell, we already have an internal support thread with you. The next update of NetSpot will address this issue.
