Advanced Masterclass
Level II Certification
The Wireless Adjuster Course (Level II)
An advanced 2-day hands-on masterclass (~40% lab time) combining deep 802.11 protocol analysis, RF spectrum diagnostics, and structured troubleshooting workflows to remediate 80% of enterprise WLAN issues in minutes.
Course Overview & Learning Domains
Wi-Fi networks can be complicated, and the 802.11 protocol is complex. Understanding how to use modern WLAN scanning tools to quickly and efficiently assess and remediate the first 80% of WLAN connectivity, performance, and security problems will save your organization an enormous amount of time and money.
This course pays for itself the very first time your WLAN experiences an issue due to best-practice misconfiguration. If you are a consultant or network engineer, this course will elevate your practical troubleshooting efficiency higher than any other in the Wi-Fi market.
In this course, you will combine knowledge of the 802.11 protocol, RF spectrum, advanced WLAN scanning tools, and structured troubleshooting processes. Featuring approximately 40% hands-on lab time, it guarantees to catapult your wireless troubleshooting capabilities forward in only two days.
Three Knowledge Domains
Master best practice assessment, expedient remediation, and efficient troubleshooting across 1) Connectivity, 2) Performance, and 3) Security.
Protocol & Frame Analysis
Perform live 802.11 frame decoding directly inside WLAN scanners, interference hunting, and enterprise change-management monitoring.
Software & Diagnostic Tools Used
The instructor utilizes WiFi Explorer Pro v3 (macOS) for hands-on instruction and live frame analysis:
Note: For online classes, students do not need physical WLAN Pi or DBx adapters. WiFi Explorer Pro v3 provides an integrated 7-day trial license.
Items to Bring & Prerequisites
Required Equipment for In-Class Labs:
-
MacBook (Pro, Air, etc.): Running a recent macOS version (provides optimal feature parity for WiFi Explorer Pro v3).
-
Optional: Windows-based laptop running Windows 10 or 11.
Recommended Prerequisite Knowledge: Prerequisite knowledge is on-par with the CWNA (Certified Wireless Network Administrator) certification level, though formal certification is not strictly mandatory for attendance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wireless Adjuster (Level II) course and why do I need it?
Designed for WLAN engineers and consultants, Level II focuses on advanced WLAN best-practice assessment, remediation, and the first 80% of troubleshooting tasks. If you have solved issues with a WLAN scanner without needing heavy protocol analyzers, you understand the efficiency of this approach. Level II elevates practical troubleshooting to new benchmarks of speed, precision, and accuracy.
Why is this course and certification important to the Wi-Fi industry?
There is a significant gap between the theory of IEEE 802.11 protocol analysis and its practical daily application. Analyzing millions of frames is unnecessary in 90% or more of real-world scenarios. A modern WLAN scanner is far more efficient at filtering and isolating issues rapidly. This course teaches exactly when and how to leverage this versatile tool.
What are the key benefits of the Level II course?
Mastering a WLAN scanner can save thousands of dollars on complex monitoring platforms. You will learn to maximize scanner feature sets, perform lightweight Wireless Intrusion Detection (WIDS), monitor RF performance, and manage enterprise-wide change tracking.
I already own a WLAN scanner. Why do I need this course?
Most technicians and engineers utilize only a small fraction of their scanner’s capabilities. Level II covers the entire feature set, multi-adapter captures, remote WLAN Pi integrations, spectrum analyzer correlation, and advanced troubleshooting heuristics.
Does this course compete with other training and certification programs?
No. The Wireless Adjuster program fills a distinct educational gap in practical hands-on troubleshooting processes and is fully complementary to vendor-neutral (CWNP) and vendor-specific certification programs.
