NETSPOT PRO FOR WINDOWS DOWNLOAD

The more samples you take the clearer a picture you'll have of the strength and span of your Wi-Fi network. NetSpot plays a tone when that scan is complete, then you walk to another location, mark it on the map, and sample the signal again.

NetSpot will take a signal sample and, if you've chosen active scanning, will check to see what your download speeds are at that location. To scan, you stand at a point in your home or office and click that location on your survey map. When you choose Active scanning it collects your download and upload speeds in addition to checking the Wifi quality. Passive scanning checks the quality of your Wi-Fi signal and how much noise the location you're scanning has. Once you've provided measurements, you select the networks you want to include in your scan and choose the type of scanning you want to do. Once you've got your floorplan loaded, you'll need to verify basic measurement information so NetSpot can determine the size of the area you're surveying.

You can import a floor plan from blueprints of office plans you have in most any standard image format, draw a floor plan manually within the application, use one of NetSpot's sample maps, or use a blank map. NetSpot surveys begin with a floor plan of the space where your network is and a laptop computer. NetSpot's network survey tool allows you to walk from point to point in your home or office to see where your signal is strongest and weakest and it will help you to determine where you're experiencing Wi-Fi interference due to microwaves or too much crossover from other wireless networks. It's likely you won't realize that you need a network survey until you've actually run one for the first time on your network.
