CTS 391 – How to Perform an AP-on-a-Stick Survey Effectively (opens the original)
Read excerpt
https://youtu.be/gDR38L1sOfQ An AP-on-a-Stick (APoS) survey is the most reliable way to know how a Wi-Fi design will behave in a difficult environment. You mount a real access point on a tripod, place it where you plan to install it, and measure. It is also the survey type where the most time gets wasted — and almost never on RF. In this episode we go through how we prepare and run APoS surveys: the conversation with the client, the equipment decisions, the configuration work that belongs in the
CTS 390: Which tools have we used this year? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode, Rowell and François discuss the tools they have been using so far in 2026.

Read excerpt
In this episode of the Clear to Send podcast, the hosts revisit the classic Wi-Fi design question: “How many SSIDs is too many?” While the long-standing technical advice has always been to minimize SSIDs to conserve airtime, the discussion explores how modern standards—like 6 GHz, multiple BSSIDs, and changing client habits—impact this rule of thumb. The episode provides technical discussion on management overhead, strategies for network consolidation, and advice on how to communicate these tech
CTS 388: Would You Rather, Wi-Fi Edition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’re trying out something new in this episode. We’re asking each other questions on “Would you rather” to get insight into how we would do Wi-Fi given we had two options. What you’ll find is that we don’t always agree on the same things. And that’s okay. More importantly, is diving into the reasons why. If you find that there’s a topic you’d like to learn more about, please let us know in the comments below.
