Improve Wifi with scanner software

The advantages of wireless networking have helped the technology to become incredibly popular.However, one downside is that all these cordless connections rely on a limited amount of space in the radio spectrum.While Wifi routers have the ability to use different frequencies within this radio space, there is no guarantee that half-a-dozen of your neighbours won’t also have their equipment tuned to the same channel.Now, while you could go door-knocking and arrange with locals to use different channels, an easier way is to install scanning software to detect the quietest frequencies. In this Workshop we will show how to do just that using a free tool called InSSIDer. Click here to open the InSSIDer download page.Baffled by jargon? See our free online Jargon Buster.
