Works, then disconnects
A link is reliable for hours or days and then becomes unstable.
If you have checked the equipment, configuration and network but the problem continues, the cause may be in the RF environment. We investigate the physical wireless link rather than assuming another box needs replacing.
A useful investigation starts with the symptom the customer sees, not with an assumption that interference is definitely responsible.
A link is reliable for hours or days and then becomes unstable.
Radios or wireless devices no longer achieve their previous range.
Wireless sensors, RFID or telemetry miss data or stop responding.
The problem correlates with a shift, machine, vehicle, event or time of day.
The same equipment works elsewhere but becomes unreliable in a particular zone.
Equipment has been swapped but the original symptom remains.
The objective is not to prove interference at all costs. It is to determine which part of the wireless system or environment best explains the evidence.
Understand the failure pattern and establish useful test conditions.
Look for competing signals, elevated noise, overload or changes in occupancy.
Consider antennas, feeders, placement, shielding, propagation and receiver behaviour.
Explain what the measurements support and what should be changed or tested next.
Describe the symptoms. We’ll tell you whether an on-site RF investigation is likely to help.
