Wireless Network Analysis
The JISC RSC YH is pleased to announce an upgrade to the Wireless Analysis service. We have taken advantage of a deal that has enabled us to buy the airmagnet software on an Ultra-mobile PC as a bundle.
Detailed below are the features from the Airmagnet site.
We will be running the service on a ‘train and loan’ basis. Once an appointment has been arranged, Ken Scott will visit and give a half-days training on the equipment and software. You will then be able to loan the equipment for a week to carry out surveys and troubleshooting.
Please contact support@rsc-yh.ac.uk for more information or to book an appointment.
