SiteStumbler™ is a cost-effective wireless site survey and audit tool from Helium Networks. It helps you survey, visualize, map and troubleshoot 802.11 a/b/g wireless networks. SiteStumbler™ includes a wireless client module that models the legendary NetStumbler software, whose author, Marius Milner, has worked with Helium to deliver a powerful toolset which includes:

• Capturing 802.11 a/b/g noise data from Atheros chipsets
• Scanning for all available access points, or locking on to a particular SSID.
• A built-in ping test.
• The ability to name/rename access points for surveys.
• Detecting access points that don't broadcast the SSID.

SiteStumbler™ is also based on the patented network mapping and optimizing methods developed originally at CMU by Alex Hills.

What can you do with SiteStumbler™?

• Import JPEG, GIF, or PNG floor plan images or outdoor maps to underlie your wireless survey.
• Use the multi-floor building survey capability in our easy point and click interface.
• Add notes (such as interference sources) as you survey, with icons for common types.
• Attach digital images to your notes.
• Use our patented channel assignment algorithm to minimize interference and maximize bandwidth.
• Drill down to view individual AP coverage and signal strengths.
• Simulate changes in AP power settings.
• Generate professional reports in MS-Word® or HTML.
• View coverage maps for signal strength along the survey path, as well as heat maps for signal strength and SNR.

SiteStumbler™ works with all wireless cards and internal laptop wireless for collecting 802.11 a/b/g signal strength information. The product is easy to use, fully automated, and comes complete with one year of email support and software upgrades.

If you need more horsepower later to support your WLAN environment, get a discounted upgrade to our Wireless Recon™ system, with our SiteSense™ software, and SiteScout™, too - the patented high-tech location-tracking cart for lucky network admins.

SiteStumbler™ lets you collect wireless information in real-time.

SiteStumbler™ allows your to mouse over your path to view wireless readings from all access points.

Use SiteStumbler™ to create color coded heat maps with user-selected thresholds. Change signal strength and SNR thresholds to view your network under differing specifications.
