Those wanting a lightweight surveying tool (as compared to, say, Airmagnent) might check out Covera Zone (just started playing with it today)

http://www.celtrio.com/home/

They have a free version that lets you input maps, export survey points into CVS file, sync with GPS, take iperf and ping reads, etc.

Just make a campaign, import the maps, start the scan, then start plotting your various points. If you configured the ping and iperf options, that data will be collected at each survey point, as well.

Other cool GPS tools I've found (but haven't tried out yet) are

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
