With a WiFi Site Survey, we analyze the WLAN coverage within your company’s premises and identify dead zones, sources of interference, and poorly placed access points. In doing so, we establish the foundation for a reliable, high-performance, and secure wireless network.
A stable, high-performance WLAN is the foundation for efficient work in companies today – whether in the office, the warehouse, or an industrial hall. Yet many firms in Switzerland struggle with dead zones, connection drops, and slow data rates without knowing the actual cause. A professional WLAN site survey uncovers these exact weak points and establishes the basis for a reliable wireless network.
During a WLAN site survey – also known as a WiFi Site Survey – radio wave propagation within your premises is precisely measured. This allows for the identification of sources of interference, overlapping channels, and dead zones. Only through such professional analysis is it possible to determine the optimal location for Access Points and plan network coverage intelligently. The result: Maximum WLAN performance with minimal risk.
Especially in the era of home offices, video conferencing, cloud-based applications, and IoT devices, comprehensive and secure WLAN is no longer an option – it is a business-critical necessity. Companies that forgo sound WLAN planning risk not only productivity losses but also security gaps. With a WLAN site survey from ITSecuritySchweiz.ch, you receive a data-driven foundation for a future-proof, stable network – tailored to your environment.
A WiFi Site Survey, also known as a WLAN site survey, radio field measurement, or wireless network planning, is a technical procedure for analyzing and optimizing radio coverage in a building or on a site. The goal of this professional service is to record actual WLAN coverage, identify interference sources, and determine the ideal placement of Access Points – either before or after a WLAN network has been set up.
During an active WLAN site survey, data is collected on-site using specialized measuring devices and software solutions: signal strengths, interference signals, channel utilization, and potential conflicts are analyzed in real-time. Alternatively, a passive site survey merely records the signal distribution of existing WLANs to identify disruptions or weaknesses in the current network. This analysis is often complemented by predictive WLAN planning, where a virtual WLAN model is created based on floor plans and structural conditions.
Regardless of the method, professional WLAN planning is crucial for a stable, secure, and powerful corporate network. Especially in complex environments such as offices with glass walls, warehouses with high-bay racking, or production facilities with metal structures, only a professional WLAN measurement can guarantee that all areas are reliably covered. ITSecuritySchweiz.ch offers you a seamless analysis and individual recommendations to optimally position your WLAN infrastructure.
A professional WLAN site survey at ITSecuritySchweiz.ch follows a clearly structured process to ensure the best possible radio coverage for your company in Switzerland. From the initial analysis to final optimization, we support you with technical expertise and state-of-the-art measurement technology.
1. Needs Analysis & Initial Consultation: To start, we jointly clarify the requirements for your WLAN network. Is it about a new WLAN plan (e.g., for a new building or renovation), or the optimization of an existing network? We discuss areas of application, number of users, structural peculiarities, and desired performance requirements such as roaming, bandwidth, or specific security aspects.
2. On-Site Measurement & WLAN Analysis: Our experienced technicians perform a precise radio field measurement directly at your location. Using professional WLAN survey software and measurement tools, we record signal strength, disruptions, interference, and dead zones. Upon request, we combine active and passive WLAN measurements with a virtual WLAN simulation based on your building plans.
3. Evaluation & Optimization Recommendation: Following data collection, we create a detailed evaluation folder featuring heatmaps, diagrams, and recommendations for action. You receive a customized plan for the optimal positioning of Access Points, channel selection, and WLAN configuration. This ensures that your WLAN network functions stably, quickly, and remains future-proof.
With our structured approach, we guarantee comprehensive WLAN coverage without dead zones – ideal for demanding corporate environments in Switzerland.

In doing so, we rely on practical consulting and implementation to achieve the maximum level of security and performance for you.
Inadequate WLAN coverage can lead to massive disruptions in a company’s day-to-day operations. With a professional WLAN site survey (also known as a WiFi Site Survey, WLAN analysis, or radio network measurement), we identify and resolve these exact weak points—before they become a real problem.
1. Dead Zones & Weak Signal Strength
A frequent disruptive factor in office buildings, warehouses, or hotels are so-called “dead zones”—areas where WLAN does not work at all or only with significantly reduced performance. These often arise due to thick walls, metallic structures, or poorly placed Access Points. By precisely measuring signal distribution, we ensure comprehensive WLAN coverage.
2. Slow or Unstable Connections
Another common issue: despite having WLAN reception, the connection is unstable, slow, or constantly drops. This is often caused by overlaps from neighboring networks (interference), incorrectly configured channels, or an insufficient number of Access Points. Our WLAN analysis uncovers these causes and provides concrete recommendations for optimization.
3. Poor Performance with High User Numbers
When many employees are active on the network at the same time—such as in co-working spaces, training rooms, or event locations—a poorly planned WLAN quickly reaches its limits. Based on your environment and user requirements, we determine the ideal network structure to guarantee a stable connection even under high loads.
Through a sound WiFi site survey, we ensure that your company can rely on a dependable and high-performance WLAN infrastructure—regardless of whether it is a new building, an existing property, or an expansion of current networks.
A professional WLAN site survey by ITSecuritySchweiz.ch offers you far more than just technical measurements—it is the first step toward a high-performance, stable, and, above all, secure corporate network. As experienced IT security experts, we do not just analyze WLAN coverage; we view the entire network within the context of performance and protection.
1. Holistic Approach – WLAN & Security from a Single Source
Many providers focus purely on signal strength. We go further: our WLAN analysis additionally considers security-relevant aspects such as unprotected networks, potential entry points, and vulnerabilities in device communication. This ensures you receive a WLAN that is not only strong but also secure.
2. Maximum Precision Thanks to Professional Tools & Expertise
We rely on professional site survey software, spectrum analysis, and heatmaps for the exact measurement of signal distribution, interference sources, and channel allocation. Combined with our experience in IT infrastructure and security consulting, we create the perfect foundation for a future-proof WLAN concept—whether in office buildings, warehouses, hospitals, or educational institutions.
3. Individual Consulting & Sustainable Solutions
Every building is different—and every company has different requirements. Instead of standard solutions, we develop a customized WLAN concept based on the site survey, structural conditions, and your specific business requirements. In doing so, we think long-term: scalable, easy to maintain, and future-proof.
