  @Ryan feeback now that iOS beta is over.


Need to handle outside decos better. I think I needed to create a really large room around my house, which is silly. I

can't recall if I was aemto place the outdoor deco outside until I did so. Satellite map for property could be useful here. It also diesn't understand that the outdoor Deco is elevated.

 

I like being able to use the house

model floorplan to start. Was better than me drawing it. Wasn't perfect. Not sure itnunderstamds open stairways and hallways near them. Needed to do some fixup which greatly altered results.

 

While you can enter floors, I don't think simulation thinks verically about wifi signal. There was no way to relate/alogn the floors plans.

 

It probably would be useful to allow you to visit places in your home and get real wifi signal sample and compare to simulation or update the simulation.

Thanks for the insightful feedback ― great point about the outdoor areas (I had to create a "room" for our backyard Deco when testing as well).

 

Will pass along your feedback regarding verticality as well; much appreciated.

 

As for gathering sample signal strength (RSSI) readings, from what I understand, select beta firmware for specific models was available during the Heatmap open beta, enabling this function at the Deco node level and allowing supported Deco models to measure and incorporate this data when generating the heatmap.

 

Thanks again for testing our Deco Wi-Fi Heatmap feature. If our team hears any new updates about its development that we can share, we'll let the community know.
