For WCS with location is there a direction to the AP that I need to configure

Some of my mapping shows clients in the parking lot. I know the AP is right and fits with the map. Is the an orientation thing I need to be aware of and how do I know which direction.
thanks
Gary

Wow.  That means triangulation.
How many APs can see a particular client?  For better-to-best result, I would normally deploy (on purpose to track down a wardriving client) to get a minimum of three (3) APs.  The APs would be deployed not on a straight line but curved or triangle with the middle away from the target.  When your APs have been setup, wait for about 5-10 minutes just to let them sort themselves out and get their "bearings" straight.
Once you've made a good cup of coffee, it's a question of reading RSSI and/or SNR returns.  The higher RSSI signal (syntax "-65 dBm") the closer the target from X AP.
I have a very good experience with triangulation because I've caught a significant number of Australian Federal government staff.  I've been called a number of names but the most "ethical" one is "Wi-Fi Police".
Hope this helps and don't forget to rate useful posts.  Thanks.

  • WCS with location doesnt locate clients

    I have WCS with location installed. From the Cisco documentation the WCS with location is suppose to provide a small set of location/mapping functions. Adding the location appliance will give you historical data.
    When trying to view clients on the floor map it says that "No clients found on this floor. Either you dont have any location server which locates clients or no clients are detected."
    There are several clients that are online and show up in the other search function but they arent mapped out.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having a similar problem with WCS not displaying my client(s) on the Heatmap. I have setup a lab environment with a single 2006 controller and 2 1010 APs. I walked around the perimeter of my office space to verify roaming between controllers but WCS still doesn't display my client. When I try to reload the heatmap it says:
    Loading clients..
    Loaded 0 out of 0 Clients.
    I have also verified that Clients are not being filtered from the view.
    Any more ideas?
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    I found an answer to this on another page (I was having the same problem) This worked for me:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.

    I tried quitting and starting again but it just jumps back to the same spot.

    It is quite large, but I have tried two of the fixes suggested and things now seem to be moving along.

  • Is there an app on the iPad that resembles Microsoft Office?  I need it for school.  If there is please let me know.  Thanks  :-)

    Is there an app on the iPad that resembles Microsoft Office?  I need it for school.

    The basic apple equivalent to ms office is called i works, which has three components.  Pages is word, numbers is xl, and keynote is powerpoint.  There are many subtle differences, but the are more or less functionaly equivalent.
    There are also a number of third part apps available to replicate office functions, such as good reader, docs to go, and my favorite, quick office.     Read the reviews in the app store and pick the one that will do what you need.
    You will also get some other suggestions here.

        Hello!
    No Play Store, sounds like no fun! Let's get this fixed! I would recommend trying the store in safe mode first. If that doesn't work a hard reset would be the next step. Here are the steps for both:

  • Will the iPhone 5c be abel for use with a Norvegian operator if I buy the phone in the US?

    Will the iPhone 5c be abel for use with a Norvegian operator if I buy the phone in the US? Im going on a vacation to USA in a few days, and i dont know when the phone will come to norway, so if it's possible, i would like to buy it in the US! Is it then possible for me to use it in Norway when i get back with a Norvegian operator?

    Jules Francis,
    The model numbers are different and each is carrier locked to their respective carriers.
    Even if they were not, the £269 price in the UK includes VAT. The price without VAT is £228.94
    The price in the U.S. Store does not include sales tax. Last time I checked sales tax in New York City is 8.375%.
    If you compare the pre-tax prices the difference is approximately £24. The rest of the difference is taxes.
    Hope this helps,

  • Is there a way to resort an ipod touch to the point before a restore was done on it? It is telling me there is nothing in the icloud and I need to reset it back up.

    s there a way to resort an ipod touch to the point before a restore was done on it? It is telling me there is nothing in the icloud and I need to reset it back up. The reset was done before I could backup the icloud and itunes to the computer and it wasn't done with my permission.

  • Working Day - Is there a table in the DW that stores non-working days?

    Scenario
    I need to query the previous or next working using W_DAY_D to compute certain daily statistics. At the moment I can use W_DAY_D and exclude DAY_NAMES like weekends. However I cannot use it for say Bank Holidays.
    Is there any table in the DW that stores the working days or to put the other way the holidays? Are there any flags on that table that would suggest the day is a working day?

    You will need to extend your W_DAY_D for that and load it according to your "working days" logic (i.e. including bank holidays etc.).
    Each row will need new foreign keys like "PREV_WRK_DAY_WID" and "NXT_WRK_DAY_WID". With those you can then join in new time dim aliases which will yield the results you're looking for. Basically the old Siebel Analytics approach before the integrated time series calculations.
    Cheers,
    C.

  • (1) I want to alphabetize faces. (2) Can't change spelling in Faces. After I correct it, it jumps back to the incorrect spelling. There are names in the list that aren't assigned. Can they be deleted??

    (1) I want to alphabetize faces. (2) Can't change spelling in Faces. After I correct it, it jumps back to the incorrect spelling. There are names in the list that aren't assigned. Can they be deleted??
    I type Sandi Patty.  It changes it to Sandi patty.  (Little "p")  There are some pics in there correctly capitalized and some that aren't.  So, I deleted all the faces with incorrect spelling hoping to clear the system of that name completely.  Didn't work.  As you type Sandi, all the choices, including the one with error in capitalization show up.  I type it CORRECTY -- Sandi Patty -- I click on another face and the Sandi Patty becomes Sandy patty.  (Little P)     There are other names in the list that were the result of bad spelling.  Can these NOT be deleted??

    Not at this time, I spent an hour on the phone with Apple support today on this topic and they could not locate the files necessary to delete names from the list.  Bummer

    You are logging in iCloud for the first time. In this case, first you need to log in iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Mac. See > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
    If you have not got a device to set iCloud up, you cannot use it. You can only use iCloud on your PC if you have got an Apple device

  • Poor network speed with 1st generation time capsule and multiple airport express 5Ghz. My network speed slows to a crawl when not close to the time capsule. I get the range that I need, but the speed is painfully slow.

    Hello,
    I have a first generation time capsule running 802.11n (b/g compatable) and the airport expresse's are the newer 5ghz models. I have 3 airport express's and I have the range that I need. I can run the time capsule using 802.11n 5ghz, but I loose the range and can't connect to all of the airport express's. My computers and mobile devices run 802.11n. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to increase the network speed. Would the new airport extreme fix the problem?
    Thank you

    Unfortunately, you are experiencing one of the downsides to 5 GHz. That's because the higher frequency 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals.
    After all, you always have to give up something to gain something else. In the case of 5 GHz, you gain potential speed but in return, you must give up penetration power and distance capability.
    In order to work well, 5 GHz signals need to almost have a line-of-sight relationship between devices. Unless you can achieve this, you will do much better to leave the Time Capsule running at the 802.11n (b/g compatible) 2.4 GHz Radio Mode and allow the Express devices to "extend" that network.
    As for the location of the AirPort Express devices in an exended network, that is critical for best performance. That's because the Express can only "extend" the quality and bandwidth of the signal that it receives. Post back if you need a few more tips on how to find the best location for the AirPort Express devices.
    Would the new airport extreme fix the problem?
    Unfortunately, no.
