Professional WiFi Survey delivers detailed analysis of the school's wireless network

The school's legacy wireless network was old and the IT team knew that an upgrade would be needed in the future. However with a move to new WiFi not within reach immediately, the school wanted peace of mind that the network was still reliable for students and staff.

The school saw a competition in EduGeek, sponsored by Redway Networks, to win a technical WiFi survey and saw this as an ideal way to get a detailed report from technical experts on the health and performance of the network. 

The school's network manager entered the competition and the school was lucky enough to win an onsite WiFi Survey conducted by a Certified Wireless Network Expert (CWNE) engineer.

WiFi Heatmaps deliver comprehensive network health check

Using industry-leading WiFi survey tools such as Ekahau AI Pro  Redway Networks' engineer conducted a comprehensive assessment of the school's wireless network health and performance. 

The WiFi survey confirmed that the school's network was functioning well overall as the school primarily relies on wired desktop computers. However, the WiFi report  highlighted that if, in the future, the school moved to 1:1 learning or BYOD the wirless network would need redesigning to handle the higher device density. 

Overall Redway Networks gave the school's network a clean bill of health for the foreseeable future.
