Summary

Learn tips and tricks for designing and troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks from two market leaders. The design section will cover best practices for leveraging the latest Wi-Fi standards, including Wi-Fi 7, to optimize network performance and capacity. Discover how to utilize the expanded 6 GHz spectrum for higher throughput and to support high-density environments.

The troubleshooting section introduces basics of Wi-Fi networks from an “in-the field” view, covering networks, access points, technologies, signal strength, and channels. After covering the basics, we’ll show how to get a holistic view of the Wi-Fi network. And since every Wi-Fi network must be connected by wire, we’ll show what is required to install and troubleshoot access points on the network.
