NetSurveyor

NetSurveyor is a Wi-Fi network analyzer and site-survey tool that follows nearby access points over time. Measurements come from the Wireless Toolbox radio.

Site Survey

Nearby access points are arranged by channel and signal strength, providing a quick visual description of the local Wi-Fi environment.

Channel Occupancy

Access points are combined by channel to show where Wi-Fi activity and contention are concentrated.

Signal Over Time

Each selected access point receives a rolling signal history. Use this view while moving the appliance to investigate coverage changes and dead spots.

Network Table

The sortable table provides SSID, BSSID, channel, band, signal, and security details. Hidden networks are identified even when they do not advertise an SSID.

Surveying a location

  1. Place the Wireless Toolbox at the first measurement position.
  2. Allow repeated scans to establish a stable view.
  3. Select the access points relevant to the survey.
  4. Move the appliance—not merely the display device—to the next position.
  5. Use signal history and the channel views to interpret the change.

RSSI describes received beacon strength at the appliance. It does not directly measure network throughput.
