The place to start is with the self-study Wi-Fi materials, wireless networking books and white papers, and Connect802 seminar and trade show presentation material here. Be sure to explore the Connect802 Antenna System Designer, an on-line RF calculator for link budget, path loss, near-field, antenna tower and mounting heights, earth bulge, refractive index, and more!. If you're in an accredited training program working towards a degree in telecommunications or any university degree program involving wireless networking or Wi-Fi communication, the information here is one of your best options for getting accurate technical information about 802.11 Wi-Fi wireless networking. Connect802 supports the Planet 3 Wireless Certified Wireless Network Analysis (CWNA) program and recognizes the importance of professional certification and training with Wi-Fi certification programs like CWNA, CWSP, CWAP, and the Cisco Wireless Certification (CQS). You should be able to get an understanding of how the Connect802 802.11 site survey, Wi-Fi consulting and design, and patent-pending product packaging design differs from the use of wireless network analysis and troubleshooting tools like Network General SnifferPRO Wireless, WildPackets AiroPeek NX, Ekahau site survey and prediction software, Trapeze Ringmaster, Wireless AirTraf survey tool, and products from Proxim and Cisco, plus the ORiNOCO Smart Wireless Suite. Using advanced Wi-Fi 802.11 tools let you "see" wireless LAN's and 802.11 site survey tools include spectrum analysis. Tools that allow scanning 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g networks simultaneously is a nice feature, but proper design up front is the key to ultimate success with Wi-Fi wireless networking. The literature, E-Magazine newsletter, on-line Wi-Fi encyclopedia, and other documents and Wi-Fi technical references here can help you understand, compare, and contrast network management software, consulting, training, packet analyzers, protocol analyzers, network monitoring, network troubleshooting, network analysis, web metrics, TCP/IP test tools, wireless LAN's, wireless LAN analysis, wireless network analysis, uses for a wireless protocol analyzer or wireless packet analyzer. End users and resellers often demonstrate their networking proficiency by becoming certified. Preparing for professional certification requires access to technology facts, and that, too, is what you can find here in the Literature section.
