Deconflict
Why Choose Deconflict?
Look, if you're trying to map out where to drop access points without shelling out cash for enterprise software, Deconflict hits the mark. Its kinda built for folks who need a quick visual before buying hardware. Since it runs straight in the browser you skip all the installs and accounts, which is huge for anyone wanting to test stuff fast on their laptop without the hassel. The main reason to pick this over others is the wall attenuation physics—like concrete blocking sigs differently than brick. Most free tools ignore that so the sims look fake. One catch though, this isnt meant for managing live traffic or configuring routers directly, its strictly a planning simulator so dont buy expecting full control panel features. Honestly its worth checking out if you're tight on budget but still want decent accuracy for small to med layouts. Open source means no hidden subs creeping up later. Just bear in mind you gotta have the internet to run it since theres no desktop app version for offline work. Simple enough for most dev shops or home lab nerds tho.
Free, open-source WiFi planner that runs in your browser. Drop a floorplan, place access points from 100+ real models, and see signal coverage through walls in real time. Each wall material has realistic RF attenuation. Glass, brick, concrete all behave differently. Channels are assigned automatically, and a 3-stage optimizer finds ideal AP placement. No account, no install, no subscription.
Deconflict Introduction
What is Deconflict?
Deconflict is a free open source WiFi planner that runs straight in your browser without needing any install. It mostly for network admins or devs who gotta map out coverage on floorplans by dropping in AP models and seeing exactly how signals hit things like brick or glass walls. No account setup or subs required, just jump in to use their 3 stage optimizer which auto assigns channels and shows u real time coverage so u can avoid deadspots before deploying gear.
How to use Deconflict?
First thing first, you dont really need to install anything or even make an account. Just hop into the site with your browser and you are good to go. Start by dragging your floorplan image right onto the canvas. It takes seconds to load up and the interface is pretty clean. Next grab an access point from the list of hundreds of models available and place em on the map. Youll instantly see signal coverage shifting through walls in real time. Different materials like brick or concrete kill signals differently which means u get a kinda accurate idea of weak spots before buying gear. Last step is hitting the optimizer button if you want help fine tuning placement. It auto assigns channels too so u dont end up with interference messes. Honestly its straightforward enough for anyone to use without reading a manual. Plus theres no hidden fees or subscritions waiting at the end.
