WiFi Monitoring allows you to monitor the status of your wireless network. Especially in large networks, monitoring wireless networks helps keep all wireless devices in sight. WiFi monitoring software allows you to monitor the status of devices, downloads, traffic, speed and signal strength of each router.
DEVICE STATUS
Do your routers really always work? Or is the router, and with it the WiFi network, intermittently unavailable? With PRTG, you can track both uptime and downtime. To do this, simply use the SNMP and ping sensors from the PRTG sensor list.
LOAD
WiFi outages often occur because the network load is too high. Among other things, the quality of the connection suffers. With prTG’s bandwidth sensors, you can identify when your wireless network is busiest.
TRAFFIC
How many data packets pass through the access point? How much bandwidth is used by certain data? With SNMP traffic sensors or SNMP user-defined sensors such as the configurable SNMP table sensor provided in PRTG, you can always get up-to-date traffic information on both wired and wireless networks.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
Do colleagues often complain about WiFi connection at certain places of work or in some premises? This may mean that some routers have insufficient signal strength. Eventually, you’ll need to replace routers or purchase additional access points. A convenient way to check the signal strength of a wireless network using PRTG is to request it using the device’s configurable extended SNMP sensor.
LAST ACCESS
The administrator’s job is to keep the security of the network under constant control. For example, some devices have a setting that displays the last time the device was connected and therefore the time it last connected to the wireless network. By using SNMP user-defined sensors, it is possible, among other things, to see that devices are present on the WiFi network at night, even in the absence of personnel. Conversely, you can see wireless access points that are barely used, so they can be moved or removed.
