Network Health for <#${floor-name}#>

Wi-Fi is typically built for a certain purpose or several purposes, such as

VoIP, web browsing, or location tracking. With Network Health, you can,
with a single visualization, display whether the network meets your
requirements or not.

Network Issues for <#${floor-name}#>

Network Issues complements Network Health by showing the requirement

that is below the threshold level at each location. Whereas Network Health
answers the question "Does it work?", Network Issues answers the
question "If it doesn't work, why?".

Coverage, Overlap and Performance

Data Rate for <#${floor-name}#>

Data Rate is the highest possible speed (measured in megabits per second)
at which the wireless devices will be transmitting data. Typically the true
data throughput is about half of the data rate or less.

Signal Strength for <#${floor-name}#>

Signal Strength - sometimes called coverage - is the most basic

requirement for a wireless network. As a general guideline, low signal
strength means unreliable connections, and low data throughput.

Signal To Noise Ratio (SNR) for <#${floor-name}#>

Signal-To-Noise Ratio indicates how much the signal strength is stronger

than the noise (co-channel interference). Signal must be stronger than noise
(SNR greater than zero) for data transfer to be possible. If the signal is only
barely stronger than noise, you may encounter occasional connection drop-
offs.
