The Timeline Slider provides an overview of the log data in time.

  • The grey marker represents the current analysis time. In a live log this will be all the way to the right to track the latest log position. You can move this slider to the left to see the information at a particular point in time. Slide back to the far right to track the logs live again

  • The vertical marker represent a session boundary. This is where the device changed AP or betwen mobile / Wi-Fi

Use the Timeline Slider to replay a log while watching the detailed data changing in the Live View (Top screen). It is often revealing to see the detail changing before a roam - look out for signal strength, data transfer and CCA levels leading up to roams.

To get a good understanding of roaming decisions, use the Timeline Slider to replay a log while watching the roaming details in the Session Explorer. Can you see how roaming attempts start coming in as signal strength falls below a certain level.
