Whether it’s pushing out Wi-Fi coverage 100 feet or deploying a network in a site that doesn’t have one, here are the steps to take to insure you wind up with a cost-effective result.
Interference, too many SSIDs, pokey management traffic, and small channel widths can all slow Wi-Fi networks. Here's how to speed them up.
These 5 tools can help automate the detection and remediation of vulnerabilities, they're available at no cost, and some are upgradeable to more fully featured platforms.
Addressing Wi-Fi interference can include better placement of access points, balancing traffic between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, beamforming, and eliminating other sources of radio-frequency signals.
We tested Wi-Fi 6 routers from Extreme, Cisco, EnGenius and Meraki to find out whether these access points deliver on the latest standard's promise of better throughput, and we reviewed each device.
Wi-Fi 6 offers many valuable new features including speed and higher density, but it’s different from its predecessors, so make sure your wired network and your organization are ready for it.
Step-by-step strategy for figuring out the best tools for testing the speed of Wi-Fi connections in trouble spots or across an entire wireless network.
Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 can provide authentication with enhanced security.
Measuring signal strength, channels, MAC addresses and security status of Wi-Fi networks is essential to monitoring Wi-Fi networks, and here are free tools – some for Windows, some for Macs – that can do just that.
