Predictive Wi‑Fi design
Model the environment from drawings or floor plans before hardware is installed. Plan access point locations around coverage, capacity, signal strength, SNR, channel use, roaming and redundancy.
Ekahau Wi-Fi design • heatmap surveys • validation • troubleshooting
Reliable business Wi‑Fi starts with proper RF design, not guesswork.
Connex Network Solutions can design, install, validate and troubleshoot commercial Wi‑Fi networks using Ekahau planning and survey tools. We help you understand where access points should go, how the building affects coverage, and whether the finished installation performs as expected.
2.4 / 5 / 6 GHz surveysWi‑Fi 6E & Wi‑Fi 7 planningDesign → Install → Validate
On-site surveys & health checks
Use Ekahau survey methodology to measure real-world Wi‑Fi performance, validate 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz coverage, and identify dead spots, interference or overloaded areas.
Installation & implementation
Connex can install the cabling, access points, cabinets, switching and network infrastructure needed to turn the design into a clean, working deployment.
Post-install validation
After installation, we can survey the live network, compare it with the intended design, document findings and tune what needs tuning.
Troubleshooting
Investigate slow Wi‑Fi, dropouts, roaming faults, poor Teams or Zoom calls, scanner issues, channel congestion, interference and old AP layouts after building changes.
Optimisation & remedial works
Turn survey results into practical actions: AP moves, extra cabling, channel plan improvements, configuration changes, hardware refreshes or phased upgrade planning.
A practical Wi‑Fi lifecycle
Ekahau gives the measurement and modelling; Connex adds the installation discipline to make it real on site.
Understand
Building use, users, devices, applications, guest Wi‑Fi, voice/video needs and known pain points.
Model
Create a predictive design from drawings and sensible RF assumptions before kit is fixed to ceilings.
Plan
Set AP positions, coverage targets, capacity requirements, roaming expectations and hardware needs.
Install
Deliver cabling, containment, APs, cabinet work, switching and patching cleanly and safely.
Validate
Survey the live network and compare measured performance against the agreed requirements.
Optimise
Report clearly, tune what needs tuning and provide a route for remedial work or future upgrades.
Where this helps
Survey-led Wi‑Fi is useful wherever wireless performance affects operations, staff experience or customer service.
Offices & HQsReliable roaming, Teams/Zoom performance and guest access.
WarehousesScanner, handheld, dispatch and operational coverage.
Schools & educationHigh-density classrooms, halls and multi-building estates.
Healthcare & hospitalityLive environments where clean delivery and uptime matter.
Multi-floor sitesCoverage shaped by walls, floors, lifts, risers and plant rooms.
Upgrade planningWi‑Fi 6E, Wi‑Fi 7, new AP layouts and capacity changes.
Problems we can investigate
- Slow Wi‑Fi or inconsistent speeds across the building
- Dead spots, weak signal areas and poor meeting-room performance
- Devices dropping off or refusing to roam cleanly between APs
- Interference, channel congestion and overloaded access points
- Warehouse handheld, scanner or voice device coverage issues
- Old AP layouts that no longer suit a changed building or workforce
- Security checks such as rogue AP visibility and weak encryption concerns
Need a better answer than “add another access point”?
Good Wi‑Fi comes from design, measurement and validation. If your wireless network is business-critical, ask Connex for an Ekahau Wi‑Fi design, survey or troubleshooting visit and we will give you a practical route to a better-performing network.
