Wyebot’s Network Test Suite Now Supports 6 GHz

The introduction of the 6 GHz frequency band represents a significant advancement for business-critical Wi-Fi networks. As organizations adopt Wi-Fi 6E, IT teams face new challenges in ensuring optimal performance across all frequency bands. That’s why we’re excited to announce that Wyebot’s DEX Sensor (WIS4400) now extends our comprehensive suite of network tests to access points operating in the 6 GHz band.

Our Complete Network Test Suite Now on 6 GHz

Wyebot’s network testing capabilities have always provided IT teams with client-side visibility that traditional AP-centric monitoring can’t deliver. Our robust suite of tests includes:

• Connection and Association Tests: Verify that clients can properly discover, authenticate, and associate with your wireless networks
• Throughput Testing: Measure upload and download speeds to ensure they meet expected performance levels
• Latency and Jitter Analysis: Identify potential voice and video quality issues before they impact users
• DNS Resolution Tests: Confirm that network services are properly resolving domain names
• Application Performance Testing: Validate that critical applications like Zoom, Teams, and web services function as expected
• Multi-AP Comparative Testing: Compare performance across different access points to identify optimization opportunities

With this release, our complete testing suite now runs seamlessly across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands, allowing IT teams to make informed decisions about their Wi-Fi 6E deployments.

Multi-Band Testing from the Client Perspective

Wyebot’s approach to Wi-Fi optimization centers on the client experience. While infrastructure tools show what your network thinks is happening, our sensors reveal what users actually experience. This client-side perspective is essential for 6 GHz deployments, where factors like range limitations, building materials, and device compatibility introduce new variables.
Our multi-radio sensor technology has always been a differentiator, allowing simultaneous testing and monitoring across frequencies. Now, this same technology extends to the 6 GHz band, providing the most comprehensive view of your wireless environment available.

Comparing Performance Across All Bands

One of the most valuable capabilities this release enables is direct performance comparison between 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands. IT teams can now:

• Compare throughput across all three bands at the same location
• Identify optimal band placement for different applications and services
• Validate that the expected benefits of 6 GHz (reduced interference, higher throughput) are actually being realized
• Create baseline performance metrics for each frequency band
• Identify coverage gaps or performance issues specific to 6 GHz deployments
• Have full visibility of 30-day historical performance

Getting Started with 6 GHz Testing

Existing Wyebot customers with the WIS4400 sensor can begin leveraging our complete test suite on 6 GHz networks immediately. Simply add your 6 GHz SSIDs through the My Networks page and configure test profiles to specify the 6 GHz band. Our platform makes it easy to implement the same comprehensive testing strategy you use on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks, now extended to include 6 GHz.

The Future of Wi-Fi Optimization

As Wi-Fi technology continues to evolve, Wyebot remains committed to providing vendor-agnostic, client-side visibility that empowers IT teams to proactively optimize their wireless networks. By extending our complete network test suite to the 6 GHz band, we’re ensuring that organizations can confidently deploy Wi-Fi 6E technology with the same level of visibility and control they’ve come to expect from Wyebot.

Whether you’re managing enterprise networks, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, or manufacturing environments, Wyebot’s comprehensive testing platform ensures your business-critical Wi-Fi performs at its peak across every frequency band.
