Version 2.1.8 Released

A new release of VisiWave Site Survey is now available.

Those that hold a license to versions before 2.1 can upgrade to version 2.1 for a small fee. See the bottom of the Purchase page on our website for details. To try out the new version, download the eval version and install it over-top of your current version. You can then either purchase upgrade codes or re-install your previous version.

New features in v2.1.8:

  • Wi-Spy DBx + 2.4x Firmware Update Support

    Support was added for the new firmware update provided
    by MetaGeek for the Wi-Spy DBx and Wi-Spy 2.4x devices.
    Without this update, Wi-Spy devices running the updated
    firmware will not be recognized by VisiWave.
    (Added in v2.1.8 )

  • Selecting Many APs in the AP List

    If you selected hundreds of APs in the AP List that is
    shown on the right side of the data collection window and
    saved that survey file, you couldn't re-load that survey
    file again.
    (Fixed in v2.1.8 )

  • Collecting Data with Duplicate APs or New Channel Numbers

    In rare cases, VisiWave would report that the same AP was
    heard multiple times at the same data point. Or it would
    list a channel number different from the channel listed
    for that AP in the master list of APs.
    (Fixed in v2.1.8 )

  • Wi-Spy Noise Level Readings Improved

    The way in which noise levels are obtained from an
    installed Wi-Spy device was improved to minimize possible
    interference from Wi-Fi traffic generated by the survey
    laptop.
