Abstract

Wireless network stability is critical for organizations. For at least part of its day-to-day activities, most companies rely on a strong Internet connection. It is highly necessary to show the fast and high capacity of Wi-Fi is. Wireless network management also plays a significant part in supplying the user with quality service and helping the system administrator manage and track the network infrastructure. The user must be able to stay connected. In this paper, the Wi-Fi connection engine was applied using the Analysis and Location Engine (ALE). ALE provides the information, including MAC address, location, floor information, and the building where the device belongs. From this data, we presented the Web visualization of the Wi-Fi network monitoring system on the map using Cesium.
