As the culture of device usage changes, how is the WLAN impacted?
From hotspots to screencasting to Smart Home devices, enterprise wireless is under siege by an entire class of devices best left at home from the technical standpoint... but user culture is pushing them into the business Wi-Fi space. The impact is felt in security, performance, policy, and more as they relate to enterprise wireless.
Join special guest Lee Badman as we discuss the enterprise WLAN in a time of changing client culture.
Plus, catch our latest segment of 7 Minutes with 7SIGNAL, where Eric uses our tech to understand how clients perform as they navigate different wireless networks.

When users complain about poor Wi-Fi experiences to the internal helpdesk, too often the next step is to immediately escalate the issue to the Wi-Fi specialists of the organization. But in the spirit of “first call resolution” what if helpdesk specialists were empowered to quickly identify the root cause of a reported Wi-Fi issue? This would certainly be the least cost option providing the best customer experience.
Whether it be work-from-home or in the office, join us for this weekly webinar where we will explore the following topics…
- A few Wi-Fi fundamentals
- Identifying Wi-Fi root cause
- Once you know, here’s what can you do
