Description
The best WiFi manager, analyzer, scanner, heatmapper, and planner!
NetSpot is best known for its real-time WiFi networks analysis through its updated Wi-Fi Inspector, great wireless visualizations within WiFi Site Surveys of existing networks, and its all-new Wi-Fi Planning Mode that lets you simulate your future WiFi coverage with its powerful new predictive surveys.
Collect and analyze data on surrounding wireless networks, see the realistic WiFi coverage, conduct wireless site surveys, visualize data, plan Wifi, fix existing and prevent various future WiFi issues.
Setting up a reliable WiFi network is a must, but not always easy. Possible obstructions in the way of getting a steady signal can include interference from already existing networks in the area, noise from electronic devices, structural materials, user density, etc. While you can experiment until you find the optimal positioning for your access points, NetSpot is a faster and more effective solution!
NetSpot WiFi Analyzer efficiently detects and visualizes all WiFi networks around you, determines wireless signal strength and its other parameters, identifies possible Wi-Fi interference.
NetSpot generates more than 20 different WiFi heatmap visualizations:
* Internet speed
* Signal-to-noise ratio
* Signal level
* Signal-to-interference ratio
* Wi-Fi troubleshooting and more

· Added: You can now add your own router with custom simulation parameters to a Predictive Survey project if a specific router brand and/or model is not yet available in NetSpot; this approach is also very useful when you need to see how custom settings may affect your future WiFi.
· Added: Select and manage multiple building objects together while working with a Planning project. Move, resize, delete, change parameters, copy and paste.
· Added: It is now possible to set the transmit power and channel width for Access Point bands in Planning mode.
· Improved: More Access Point brands and models were added to Planning mode.
· Improved: Advanced functionality of exporting, importing and merging snapshots.
· Fixed: Subtle bug fixes and improvements throughout.
Ratings and Reviews
good wifi analyzer and singal strength mapper
This is not just an efficient Wi-Fi analyzer; it also enables users to site survey buildings and receive reports detailing areas of weak and strong Wi-Fi signal strength. One aspect I personally find lacking is the ability to quickly create floor plans using AI and a smartphone, with just a couple of clicks. I find the built-in floor plan builder somewhat tricky to use
Efficient Wi-Fi mapping
I was able to create an impressive Wi-Fi heatmap for my office, which helped identify areas with weak Wi-Fi coverage. However, it came at a significant cost, as the free version only functions as a Wi-Fi analyzer, displaying details about surrounding Wi-Fi networks. Overall, this app is effective but can be expensive for the pro version.
WiFi Planning!
Was really looking forward to this feature. Still figuring things out, but looks impressive. The support people are really nice and responsive, which always adds to the value imo.
