Ekahau Survey Pro – Image Editing – Wish list Part 3
Previously I discussed the “Ekahau – Crop & Rotate Map” feature. It is a really good feature and I’m glad they finally added that in their software. With that being said as part of my “Ekahau wish list” I would like to discuss a feature that I would love to see in Ekahau, “Ekahau –…
Ekahau Survey Pro – Crop & Rotate Feature
Ekahau has added a pretty cool feature for the maps, it is called “Crop & Rotate Map”. I really like this feature because it makes the reports come out nice especially when the maps have extra space around them. I can simply crop the image file on my laptop within Ekahau and that makes a…
Ruckus VSZ-H – Enable Rogue Detection
Ruckus VSZ-H is not a very friendly interface as compared to some of other vendor interfaces and at times if you have not done something for a while you may forget it easily. This applies to other vendor WLAN Management interfaces as well but definitely true for Ruckus VSZ. I will be adding some common…

Access Point Placement – Part 1
Designing a Wireless network is not just engineering and configuring hardware, but I feel there is lots of creativity and art that is involved in it. That is why if you are studying for a CWDP or reading any Wi-Fi Design best practices white paper, blog etc you will find that walking the site is…
Chromebook connectivity issues

They also had 30 Chromebooks, which constantly had connectivity issues no matter where they were in the building. Looking through the configurations of the Wi-Fi, I noticed nothing that…
