Wi-Fi Testing
National Technical Systems (NTS)
NTS has been testing wireless home networking devices (typically referenced as “Wi-Fi” devices) almost since their introduction. Since 1999, NTS has been perform testing of wireless LAN products based on the IEEE-802.11 standard (e.g., 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and even the latest drafts of 802.11ac and 802.11ad). Wi-Fi products are typically designed to allow you to connect your personal computer to a wireless network typically connected to the Internet. Wi-Fi “hot-spots” are available in locations across the country (e.g., coffee shops, hotels, etc.), and have become common-place. However, Wi-Fi is expanding into other areas, including healthcare and smart energy (e.g., connecting your smart device to the internet to track energy usage, etc.).
