Ligowave has recently launched a small form factor 802.11N radio. This is one of the growing number of devices designed for the SOHO and small and medium enterprise installs. You can read the full data sheet here.\u00a0https:\/\/www.ligowave.com\/public\/downloads\/APC%20button.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the first things I do with a unit like this is login and look at the existing firmware. \u00a0My unit came with Version 5.95 and the latest available was 7.02. \u00a0Since this is a new platform for me, I can’t speak to the in the firmware, other than what I saw on the surface.<\/p>\n

I noticed some cool things about this unit, which some other vendors are lacking at the moment<\/p>\n

Spectrum Analyzer<\/strong>
\nThe spectrum analyzer under tools loaded very quickly. \u00a0No complicated Java or slow load times. \u00a0The following is a screenshot from it sitting on my desk.<\/p>\n

.\"Screen<\/p>\n

Site Survery<\/strong>
\nJust like the spectrum scan the site survey was quick and trouble-free. It picked up everything I expected it to see. It is very handy to just pop into a unit and see what it sees.<\/p>\n

\"Screen<\/p>\n

SNMP and SMTP traps<\/strong>
\nSomething that is very handy for the small office or small deployment was under services…System alerts. You can have the device send an e-mail or SNMP trap based upon some things most folks would really like to know about. For example, if the noise floor gets greater than a certain DB it will let you know. \u00a0Pretty cool<\/p>\n

\"Screen<\/p>\n

These have a street price in the $40-50 range. This has just been a quick overlook. \u00a0I hope to get into some real world uses of these in the near future for a followup to this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
