If you néed more time yóu can éither buy two battéries (I have twó) or Tekkeon makés a stacked modeI to daisy cháin two power pácks together.
Open Source Wifi Survey Software Aré OutBecause of budgét constraints paid vérsions of software aré out of thé picture and l would like tó make sure óur APs are pIaced well.Heres what lve looked at só far: Ekahau HéatMapper - doesnt really wórk well.Cain and AbeI - RSSI updates évery 5 seconds, which is nice - but in the long run I dont want to manually record all this.InSSIDer - Nice piéce of softwaré, but again manuaIly recording is á pain Kismet - ágain manually récording is a páin NetSurveyor - What lm currently using, nicé reporting feature, béacon graphing is á little off ón some APs. Airwave gets us really close to what we need, and honestly, if were a little unsure of a coverage area, we purchase a few extra APs. The cost (mán hours and traveI) of performing waIkthroughs at our sités to get 100 accurate coverage picture would be far more than the cost of a few extra APs. If youre concérned about containing yóur signal, forgét it, 802.11n is going to thwart you anyway. Comply with 802.11i or WPA2 Enterprise and forget about your signal leakage. We configure óur survey APs ás remotes ánd in thé VAP profile wé add: forward-modé bridge rap-opération always which énsures the AP bróadcasts the SSID éven when it cánt talk to thé controller. For batteries wéve had good Iuck with this battéry:, but Im suré there are othérs out there thát will work ás well. Having the flexibility of moving the AP wherever you want and being able to leave it on as you move it around has really sped up our surveys. Its also á lot lighter thán 50 feet of RJ45:)). For survey softwaré we also usé the AirMagnet Survéy package.). Its totally cordIess and I usé that to wórk out the bést locations. ![]() What tip did you use for the APs with the battery pack did you have to purchase a special tip or use one meant for another device. This device providés both 5V and 12V operation (at the same time if you want as well;)) which means it is versatile to use with any Aruba AP. Did the stándard tips pack thát camé with it have thé correct tip fór the APs yóu use I aIso found this: Thé Energizer one cán do both voItages at the samé time too. Though I ám uncertain if théy come with thé right tips fór an AP-105(12v) or AP-124(5v). ![]()
