Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy
Deliver Reliable WiFi
with Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy
WiFi is no longer a luxury. Your users depend on WiFi for business, education, healthcare, and of course entertainment. But delivering fast, reliable WiFi in complex network environments can be difficult. That’s why we built Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy.
- Visualize WiFi congestion
- Identify non-WiFi interferers
- Real-time network monitoring
- Eliminate WiFi dead spots
- Create custom job reports
Powerful Dual-Band Spectrum Analysis
Wi-Spy is a powerful dual-band spectrum analyzer that measures WiFi and non-WiFi activity in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. This data is then passed to Chanalyzer, which maps out the inteference along with your WiFi networks and their respective channels so you can see and manage interference and saturation in real time.
Locate Sources of Interference
Once you're able to see interference using Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy, the next step is to eliminate it. Unlike the omnidirectional WiFi antenna in your laptop or wireless adapter, our Device Finder 2.4 GHz Directional Antenna is highly focused to pinpoint non-WiFi sources of interference. This allows you to actively seek out and remove loud transmitters from your WiFi environment.
Monitor Channel Saturation and Intermittent Interferers
By graphing every access point within reach and pairing it with the raw RF information provided by Wi-Spy, Chanalyzer provides you with all the information you need to monitor and manage saturated channels. The built-in recording feature even allows you to track the most frustrating WiFi problem—intermittent interference—and come up with a plan to eliminate it for good.
Find and Eliminate WiFi Dead Spots
Identifying gaps in your coverage area is paramount, whether you are planning out a network the first time or testing existing coverage to maintain reliability. Chanalyzer quickly reads the wireless environment, displays every SSID within range, and reports the signal strength in real time so you can ensure quality coverage for your users.
Report Your Findings with Ease
Creating a report from Chanalyzer is easy. With just a few clicks you can add a snapshot of any image or table displayed in Chanalyzer. Add your own pictures, create your own descriptions, or just use the defaults. After you’re done, export to PDF to create a visually compelling report of dead spots, saturation, and rogue APs that your boss or clients can understand.
Fix your WiFi and get on with your day
with Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy
When your business depends on reliable WiFi, the cost of ignoring the problem is simply too high. Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy will show you the most common—but the most frustrating—problems experienced across large-scale wireless networks and provide you with the information you need to solve them.
With Chanalyzer + Wi-Spy, tolerating poor wireless performance is a thing of the past.

inSSIDer Office
Manage Small Business WiFi with inSSIDer Office
inSSIDer Office sheds light on the most common WiFi problems—interference from neighboring networks, poor router placement, inadequate coverage, faulty network configurations, and dropped connections—and provides the insights you need to maintain a reliable WiFi network.
Avoid WiFi Interference from Neighboring Networks
Selecting the right channel for your WiFi network is easy with inSSIDer Office. Scan the wireless environment, select your WiFi network, and inSSIDer Office recommends the best WiFi channel for you. It’s also quick and easy to perform a routine spot check to ensure optimal channel selection and minimize or eliminate interference from neighboring networks.
Verify WiFi Coverage Across the Network
From choosing the location for your router to ensuring your network serves its users, it’s critical to regularly measure signal strength (RSSI) across your coverage area. inSSIDer Office displays your network’s signal strength over time so you can minimize problems with dropped connections or roaming issues when moving from one place to another.
Identify Configuration Issues
Properly configuring a WiFi network is more than plugging in the router and hoping for fast, reliable WiFi. inSSIDer Office analyzes your network and recommends configuration optimizations based on real data, allowing you to pick the right channel, disable legacy data rates, and identify security issues to maximize the speed and efficiency of your small network.
View Wireless Interference with Wi-Spy
Non-WiFi devices like wireless video cameras, Bluetooth speakers, and cordless phones interfere with WiFi, but basic WiFi scanners can’t see them. The Wi-Spy spectrum analyzer allows you to see non-WiFi interference in inSSIDer Office, giving you a full picture of your WiFi environment.

Eye P.A.
Optimize WiFi with Visual Packet Analysis
Eye P.A. is a packet analyzer that makes WiFi traffic visible for quick analysis and diagnosis. At a glance, you can find and fix packet loss, monitor channel capacity, minimize congestion, and shed light on network configuration and security issues.
Powerful Data Visualization
Unlike a typical protocol analyzer, Eye P.A. uses multi-layer pie charts to visualize network traffic. This allows you to quickly view airtime utilization for all access points, client devices, and packet types transmitted on a selected channel. With just a few clicks, you can identify problematic devices without sifting through hundreds of lines of packet data.
Bonus for Wireshark Users: You can export filtered data directly to Wireshark!
Identify and Manage Packet Loss
Packet loss forces devices to retransmit data, which impacts WiFi throughput and clogs up bandwidth for every client on a wireless channel. Eye P.A. makes it easy to identify sources of packet loss, helps you to understand why devices are retransmitting, and provides guidance to get your network running at optimal data rates.
Measure Network Capacity and Congestion
Since each wireless channel has limited capacity, efficient airtime utilization is crucial for high-performance WiFi. Eye P.A. measures data rates, allowing you to identify slow-transmitting devices that are clogging up your network. Once they have been identified, offending devices can be reconfigured or eliminated to free up precious network bandwidth.
Fix Network Misconfigurations
There is a lot to consider when deploying a wireless network, and sometimes settings are easy to overlook. Eye P.A. will help you to identify and fix common WiFi configuration issues, such as non-standard channels, legacy data rates and sub-optimal network security.
Capture Packets with AirPcap Nx
Eye P.A. supports packet capture with the AirPcap Nx. This 2×2 MIMO packet sniffer device allows you to record 802.11a/b/g/n packet captures in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Support for AirPcap Nx is built into Eye P.A., so you won’t have to launch another program.
