WifiSleuth is a unique, PC-based product that makes setting up and troubleshooting wireless networks easy. It is a Wi-Fi channel analyzer that takes the guesswork out of identifying the best channel for your 802.11 wireless network (WLAN). The frequencies used by Wi-Fi (802.11 standard) are unlicensed and shared by a variety of wireless devices. In most environments certain Wi-Fi channels make better choices for a WLAN since they are subject to less interference from other devices in the area that compete for the same region of the 2.4 GHz spectrum. WifiSleuth quickly and easily determines the best Wi-Fi channel for your 802.11 access point (AP), which facilitates optimal performance of your wireless network (WLAN). So, you can either spend the weekend trying to figure out the source of the interference that is clobbering your AP –- or, use WifiSleuth to find the best channel and be done with it.
Under the hood WifiSleuth uses the same 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzer technology as AirSleuth, but distinguishes itself by presenting the data in diagnostic views that are “Wi-Fi channel-centric”. Though 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzers are great at monitoring radio frequency (RF) signals and interference – due to the way Wi-Fi channels overlap it is still difficult to identify from a frequency spectrum the “best” channel to use for a wireless network. WifiSleuth collects RF data in real-time, evaluates it, and then shows you the best (and worst) channels.
WifiSleuth offers 3 real-time diagnostic views of the RF data that it captures and evaluates
(see our

page) --
Sorted Channels, Channels Timecourse and Channel Spectrogram.
WifiSleuth also includes a
real-time calculation of “Best Wi-Fi Channel” – i.e. the channel with the least interference.
A proprietary algorithm was developed that ranks the 11 Wi-Fi channels in real-time from least
to most noisy. So, you can set up WifiSleuth at a particular location, let it run for an
extended period and when you are done the Best Wi-Fi Channel will tell you, overall, which
is the best Wi-Fi channel to use for the access point that services that site.
Included in the WifiSleuth package is a USB wireless device, the
WifiSleuth application and
installation programs on CD, and instructions. Also, the latest version of the program can
be downloaded from our
Products page.
WifiSleuth runs on the Windows 98, 2000, XP and Vista operating systems. Since the CPU and memory requirements
are quite modest, WifiSleuth runs fine on older laptop and desktop computers and does not require Windows .NET Framework.
