Yes, a wireless site survey is very valuable and is viewed as an essential step for organizations planning to install or upgrade a wireless network. Here's why: Optimal network design Nile uses site surveys to ensure the network is designed effectively from the start, considering factors such as signal strength, capacity, coverage, and the locations of access points. This foundational work is critical in establishing a robust and reliable Wi-Fi network. Cost savings Poorly deployed networks often lead to weak signals or dead zones, causing organizations to purchase more access points and cabling installation than necessary – something that can be avoided with Nile's initial site survey. By optimizing the network layout, organizations can avoid unnecessary issues and time lost. Increased productivity The reliability offered by Nile's site survey reduces downtime and increases productivity, as the IT staff and users won't be hindered by poor connectivity and subsequent help desk tickets. This directly translates to smoother operations and improved efficiency. Enhanced user experience A site survey can guarantee the best possible wireless experience for visitors and staff alike. Nile strives to ensure strong and consistent Wi-Fi coverage across each site to enhance user satisfaction and engagement. Futureproofing Nile's site surveys can even help in anticipating future requirements and growth, ensuring that the network can be scaled effectively when necessary. This forward-thinking approach is crucial for long-term success. Security assurance A site survey can highlight potential vulnerabilities in a network's security, allowing them to be addressed before the network becomes operational. This is especially important in urban or dense areas where neighboring Wi-Fi deployments may cause issues. This proactive measure is vital in Nile's planning process as safeguarding the network against potential threats. However, it's also worth noting that the value of a wireless site survey will highly depend on the size of the premises, the number of users, and how critical wireless connectivity is to business operations. In smaller environments with less demand, for example, a wireless site survey might not be necessary.

Passive scanning: Its the process where the client (STA) listens (on different channels) to the beacons from the AP or Ad Hoc station. The STA continues to listen to the beacons till its hears a beacon with the SSID of the network it wishes to join. Active scanning: This involves the STA sending a probe request frame. The station sends the probe request frame when it is actively trying to join a specific SSID (network). The probe request frame will either contain the SSID name of the network or a broadcast SSID. If probe request is sent specifying a specific SSID, then only the APs serving the SSID will respond with a probe response frame. If probe request is sent with broadcast SSID then all APs within reach will respond.

802.11ac Enhancements: Includes Multi-User MIMO, wider RF channels, and more spatial streams for faster and more efficient network performance. There are 2 variants of 802.11ac — phase 1 and phase 2. 802.11ac is faster compared to previous standards because of the introduction of the below Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) — Clients get on and off the network quicker, allowing more clients to be served, Pre Wave 2 an access point would talk to the clients one at a time and this was called SU-MIMO. Multi-user MIMO is important because it allows access points and their many antennas to transmit (or talk) to multiple client devices all at the same time. This helps maximize air-time efficiency so that each client, regardless of what version of 802.11 it is running, gets the amount of airtime it's supposed to get based on the technology supported. Wider RF Channels — Wave 2 improvement is the option to use 160-MHz channel widths. That's double what we saw with Wave 1 technology. Think of this as a 2 line interstate road where two additional lines have been added. The top speeds depend on the whether the AP supports 80-MHz or 160-MHz channels, as well as whether the wireless client devices tapping your network support Wave 2. Four Spatial Streams — Wave 2 also supports four transmitting and receiving antennas while the previous iteration supported only three receive antennas. Just like we see in the image below, With 4 spatial streams an AP could send 4 streams of data to the same client at the same time. The client can then aggregate this 4 streams and thus improve its throughput. It is also important to notice that on the AP side, the greater the number of receive antennas, the greater the distance that a particular data rate can be sustained.

Typically one way audio issues stem from power mismatch between the AP and the VoWiFi device. The VoWiFI device has limited transmit power compared to the AP which can cause one way audio issues. The VoWiFi device can hear the AP communication even at relatively far off distances but at cell edge or beyond if the VoWiFi transmits data back, the AP sometimes cannot interpret the data leading to one way audio. This is the simplest form of one way audio issue. You need to determine if the communication is between 2 VoWiFi devices or one VoWiFi and one wired phone.
