Performance analysis of wi-fi network: a study case in Swiss German University
Swiss German University (SGU) has recently equipped its campus with Wi-Fi network connections through Access Points (APs). It is currently located and covers Student Lounge 1, Student Lounge 2, Library, and some Laboratories in SGU campus area. Many SGU students have felt the benefit of the installation of the Wi-Fi network. However, this also raises some questions and critics as the performance of the Wi-Fi network is inadequate to accommodate most of SGU students need and for having sluggish performance. First approach to this problem would be to hire a professional network analyst to evaluate and find why the Wi-Fi connection do has a below average performance. This could cost a fortune for SGU. Second approach would be to buy hardware and software specialized in measuring performance of a network to analyze the current network performance and traffic to find all the problems that made the below average performance. This would also cost a fortune for SGU. My solution is to analyze the Wi-Fi network performance myself with open - source tools and do some intensive testing to find the main problem of the sluggish performance on SGU Wi-Fi connection. My testing methodology can be used to measure performance of any Wi-Fi network and to find the main cause of the slow performance in a Wi-Fi network.
