Testing Wi-Fi channels

Wireless networks have become an integral part of our daily lives, and network reliability and performance play an important role. In this article, we will look at why it is important to test your wireless network, what factors can interfere with the signal, and also compare 6th and 7th generation networks and explain why it is better to entrust testing to professionals.

Why test your wireless network:

Reliability: Testing can detect potential problems in the network, such as dropped connections or congestion, which helps ensure reliable network operation.

Performance: By measuring data transfer speeds and latency, you can ensure that your network is running at peak performance.

Interference Identification: Testing can identify factors that may be interfering with the signal, such as metal obstructions or other wireless devices.

What can interfere with the signal on a wireless network:

Physical barriers: Walls, ceilings, furniture, and even water can weaken your Wi-Fi signal.

Other wireless devices: Other wireless networks and devices may cause interference and reduce performance.

Network congestion: If too many devices are using the network at the same time, it can cause poor connection quality.

6th and 7th generation networks:

6th generation network (Wi-Fi 6): Provides faster data transfer speeds, more reliable connections in dense networks, and the ability to serve more devices simultaneously.

7th generation network (Wi-Fi 7): This is the future generation of networks that will offer even faster speeds, greater reliability and the ability to operate in extreme conditions.

Why is it better to entrust testing to professionals:

Knowledge and Experience: Professionals have in-depth knowledge of wireless technologies and experience in conducting testing.

Specialized Tools: Professionals use specialized testing tools that can more accurately measure network performance and reliability.

Troubleshooting: If testing reveals problems, professionals can provide solutions and make necessary adjustments.

Compliance with Standards: Professionals know local and international standards and will help ensure compliance.
