Perhaps it's the size of the area you are trying to cover rather than
the number of AP's. My limited testing showed that I needed to use a
large number of hits in an AP's location and even then the display was
not perfect. I did not use a map but used the grid display and my home
AP as the start point. The resulting map for my home AP covered the
whole of the grid but the coverage maps for the other AP's were
restricted to within a few squares of the the route I had taken and
where I had obtained readings and did not cover the whole grid.
Did you notice that as you conduct the survey the line that is drawn
is the colour of the signal strength, this is replaced by a solid green
line on the completion of the survey. |
