MetaGeek, Oscium Deliver Wi-Fi, Spectrum Diagnostic Tool for Wi-Fi 6E

MetaGeek, an Auvik company, announced a technical integration with Oscium, a provider of innovative test and diagnostics equipment. MetaGeek Chanalyzer and WiPry Clarity bring together software and hardware to provide customers with an affordable and portable spectrum analyzer for 6 GHz.

Now, internal network administrators, Wi-Fi engineers, IT professionals and managed service providers (MSPs) can troubleshoot Wi-Fi issues onsite across all three bands (2.4, 5, and 6) at a fraction of the cost of hiring a professional wireless consultant.

Previous generations of Wi-Fi all shared a small number of available channels, leading to issues with interference and congestion. Wi-Fi 6E is an emerging generation that allows businesses to take advantage of exclusive channels on the 6 GHz band. Organizations looking to improve their Wi-Fi speed and reliability are adopting Wi-Fi 6E, and therefore need a diagnostic solution capable of analyzing and troubleshooting on 6 GHz.

Chanalyzer by MetaGeek allows Wi-Fi administrators to identify MAC addresses on a channel and display airtime per device, thereby offering deep insights into their network’s performance and empowering them to make informed decisions for optimization.

With the integration, Chanalyzer is now compatible with Oscium’s WiPry Clarity hardware, enabling tri-band spectrum analysis across the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands. Customers can plug their WiPry Clarity device into a laptop with Chanalyzer installed, and get Layer 1 and Layer 2 insights.
