But you do need to know a little about networking
WiFi Analyzers on iPhone or iPad (iOS version)
Unless you live far from your neighbors, you probably have multiple Wi-Fi networks that overlap. This is especially true in apartment buildings where dozens of different router Wi-Fi networks can communicate with each other. Performing a wireless site survey with a Wi-Fi analyzer can help eliminate interference from other access points and help you set up an optimal Wi-Fi network.
The downside is that these wireless network surveys are often expensive — unless you perform them yourself. The NetSpot App is one of many recommended professional applications for Wi-Fi network surveys, Wi-Fi analysis, and wireless network troubleshooting. In this review, we provide feedback on the NetSpot Wi-Fi analyzer application.
NetSpot is a professional Wi-Fi analyzer that works on iPhone, Android, macOS, and Windows. You can use it to perform Wi-Fi network scans that measure things like Wi-Fi channel signal strength and interference throughout your home. The application is packed with powerful tools and features.
