What is Wi-Spy?
Wi-Spy™ is a range of USB Spectrum Analyzers that allow people to view what is occuring in the 2.4 GHz, 5 Ghz and 900 MHz frequencies*. The hardware truly shines when coupled with the Chanalyzer software - which has been developed extensively over the years to provide valuable and useful features on the field and at home.
- Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n)
- Microwave Ovens
- Cordless Phones
- ZigBee
- Bluetooth
- Baby monitors
- etc.
*The frequencies available for scanning depend on the exact Wi-Spy model used
Please check out the Hardware Overview and the Chanalyzer Overview for more information.
Who needs Wi-Spy?
You may need Wi-Spy if:
- You deploy and maintain Wi-Fi networks
- Your Wi-Fi has intermittent bandwidth problems
- The microwave interferes with your Wi-Fi network
- When the phone rings your network connection drops
- Your neighbors, family, and friends constantly call you for free tech support
What makes Wi-Spy so unique?
We think our spectrum analyser represents excellent value. It is a valuable investment and asset because we all know the 2.4Ghz spectrum is increasingly becoming saturated with devices all broadcasting on this frequency band.
However, it is not just the hardware that we are proud of. We have continually worked on improving our software to make the hardware even more functional.
Chanalyzer increases the flexibilty of the Wi-Spy solution, and gives you more ways to view the collected data. Below is a sample screenshot of the Chanalyzer software.
