A non-802.11 device is suspected of causing interference on the WLAN. You are not certain of the location or type of device. What is the best solution for locating this non-802.11 device?
A.
Access point spectrum analyzer
B.
Laptop-based spectrum analyzer with an omni-directional antenna
C.
Laptop-based spectrum analyzer with a directional antenna.
D.
Laptop-based spectrum analyzer with an omni-directional antenna.
I will say C as well. While an AP spectrum analyzer and a Laptop-based spectrum analyzer with omni-directional antenna may be able to check for non-802.11 interference within an RF environment, neither can provide more certainty to the WLAN administrator as par the actual location of the non-802.11 interference source. Only as the WLAN engineer/administrator moves around with a laptop (in which is installed a spectrum analyzer software) with directional antenna will s/he be able to pinpoint the actual location of the non-802.11 interference within the RF environment.
