Primerjava mrežastih brezžičnih omrežnih storitev

DODIČ BRŽAN, ŽAN (author), Žabkar, Jure (mentor)

V diplomski nalogi primerjamo različne mrežaste brezžične omrežne sisteme. Najprej predstavimo zgodovino brezžičnih omrežji in usmerjevalnikov ter podrobno opišemo mrežasto brezžično omrežje in Wi-Fi Alliance. Nato smo preučili prednosti mrežasto brezžičnih omrežnih sistemov in njihove aplikacije. V nadaljevanju smo se osredotočili na tri izbrane mrežaste brezžične omrežne sisteme: Plume SuperPod, Amazon Eero in Netgear Orbi. Podrobno opišemo Plume SuperPod, saj je edini odprtokodni sistem med njimi. Nato smo izvedli različna testiranja zmogljivosti, vključno s testom štirikotne obremenitve, testom gostovanja, testom prioritizacije in drugimi, ter predstavili uporabljena orodja. Podamo komentar o najboljših sistemih in predstavimo možnosti njihove uporabe. Naša raziskava prinaša koristne informacije glede delovanja in izbire mrežastih brezžičnih omrežnih sistemov glede na uporabniške potrebe.

Abstract

In this thesis we compare different WiFi network systems. First, we present the history of WiFi and routers and describe in detail, network WiFi and Wi-Fi Alliance. We then examine the benefits of WiFi Mesh systems and their applications. In the following, we focus on three selected WiFi Mesh systems: the Plume SuperPod, the Amazon Eero and the Netgear Orbi. We describe Plume SuperPod in detail as it is the only open source system among them. We then perform various performance tests, including a 4-corner load test, a roaming test, a prioritisation test and others, and present the tools used. We comment on the best systems and present the possibilities of using them. Our survey provides useful information regarding the performance of WiFi Mesh systems and in the selection of a WiFi Mesh system according to the user needs.
