Hi All, I am looking for a tool to help with Wifi planning and verification. We would like a tool that can overlay on a map or floor plan for outdoor and indoor use with heat map visualization. Something that can help us to plan the location of APs and also to validate that after an installation the area is sufficiently covered. Can anyone suggest or recommend such a tool. TIA.

You can't go past Ekahau for this sort of stuff. It's just expensive. But it is literally the best. Andrew On Wed, 27 Jan 2021 at 15:18, Christopher Hawker <email@chrishawker.com.au> wrote:

+1 for Ekahau, like Andrew said they are a bit expensive but the quality of the survey tool and support is second to none.
