Jakob PeterhänselParticipantSure, on the way!
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantNot bad! :-)
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantIf option 1 is possible, the user could set selections on all maps and do a multi-export of all in one go.. ;-)
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantUsing such an external device, Iø’m thinking it would be great to be able to sample from Both internal And external!?!
That way, you could see if there is a huge difference in the antennas.. (although that is not possible on iOS devices..)
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantThanks Alex!
It’s often used! :-)
Jakob PeterhänselParticipant>Is this Netis adapter AirPort compatible?
It seems so: http://www.netis-systems.com/en/products/Dualband-Series/904.html#.VSZjEVzMeM4
System Requirements:
Windows XP (32/64bits), Windows Vista (32/64bits),
Windows 7 (32/64bits), Windows 8 (32/64bits),
Windows 8.1 (32/64bits);
Linux (as Ubuntu 12.10/13.04/13.10/14.10);
Mac OS 10.4/10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8/10.9/10.10
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantYeah, that sounds like it.
It’s not that hard to make an Excel table of a building with AP’s in one row, but as soon as you start to have buldings that bend and curve, it becomes more difficult.
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantOk, nice to get some feedback.
I’m actually thinking more about 3D channel planning, not detailed signal level coverage.
;-)
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantI see two issues in this aspect:
1: Correct a wrong scale on the current map used.
– As the data is only stored pr. measure point(I suspect!), simply being able to re-add the two messure points should ‘just’ provide new input to formulas used for visualization (that is done every time the user changes map anyway!)2: Replace crappy floor plans with better ones!
Sometimes you simply have to snap pictures of fire escape plans in the hallway, in order to get the survey done. Being able to replace these with better pictures/CAD drawings would be awesome!
Here, the user needs to align/scale the new image to match the old one and then replace it.
If the replacing image is much better resolution, this could provide a better zoom factor as well…
Jakob PeterhänselParticipant
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantSome further inputs:
1: This could also be accomplished by ‘greying out’ the area under the set threshold.
I like to disable the ‘Grey out unmeasured areas’, so in that case, it could be valid. But:2: It could be nice to invert the ‘rainbow’, so Red is ‘under required level’.
I guess red is currently used as ‘hot’ areas ( it Is a ‘heat map’ after all), but Red means ‘warning’ in the human brain, making much more sense here as a warning. And green/blue is ‘we are safe’ areas. In terms of correct coverage.
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantGreat – thanks – would be very helpful to be able to add notes as you walk around.
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantGreat, done!
Jakob PeterhänselParticipantWhen implementing this, please consider:
Surveying new buildings with no wifi at all, moving One AP around. Same SSID, same MAC/BSSID..
Would the workflow be:
One snapshot for each location? And then combine all snapshots into one, giving each snapshot a ‘virtual BSSID’/location on the final map?I know, buildings without any wifi is becoming rare, but it still does happen.. ;.)
