Preface
This is a compilation of Seattle Pacific University (SPU) Computer Information Systems’ (CIS) wireless
networks coverage maps, tests and statistics. It includes information on all public and administration spaces,
excluding residence halls. This project was initiated spring quarter of 2015 by the CIS Helpdesk in response to a
number of reports regarding poor or inconsistent wireless signal strength and connection speeds.
A coverage map and throughput statistics are included for each floor of every administration and public
building at SPU. Building floor plans were obtained from Volume 1, 3rd edition of Facility & Project Management’s
“Floor Plans & Space Inventory” document. Floor plans were then overlaid with signal strength measurements
generated using the PassMark WirelessMon program. Network throughput statistics measured using the TamoSoft
Throughput Test software are also included in this report.
5
Methods
Hardware
Measurements were taken using a 2014 Lenovo ThinkPad X230 laptop equipped with an Intel® Centrino®
Advanced-N 6205 802.11 A/B/G/N dual-band 300Mbps wireless adapter. In general, the AP signal detection
threshold was –90dB and did not exceed –30dB.
Coverage Maps
Generated using the PassMark WirelessMon software. Floor plans of campus buildings were overlaid with
honeycomb sample zones to map signal strength. A minimum of 3 samples per zone were taken of the average
signal strength (in dBm) of all nearby APs broadcasting the SPU-Business-01 wireless B/G/N network.
Measurements were taken at a height of 3 - 6 feet above the floor. Signal strength scale ranges from –90dBm to –
30dBm. Samples were taken during normal business hours.
Throughput
Network throughput was measured for the SPU-Business-01 wireless network at least twice on each
(sizeable) site floor, at locations of strongest signal strength, usually directly under an access point (AP). Tests were
taken using the TamoSoft Throughput Test client/server program. The server application was run from an SPU
LAN connected machine at CIS, and the client application run from the testing laptop connected to SPU-Business-
01. 30 second – 1 minute tests were run using IPv4 and Best Effort QoS, through port 27100.

Summary
Alexander Hall looks to have adequate wireless coverage. The newer Aruba APs installed in Alexander
during its remodel seem to have provided a solid internet connection throughout the building but do not propagate
very well around or through obstructions. Throughput tests show a moderate fluctuation in loss, possibly due to the
close test proximity and consequential near-field path loss.
At an average of 29.87 Mbps TCP/UDP download rate, Alexander Hall’s first floor is below average.
However its average TCP/UDP upload rate of 83.53 is slightly above average.
