The Certified Wireless Technician (CWT) is an individual who can install APs based on a design document, configure the AP for initial operations and ensure connectivity. The individual can troubleshoot basic problems and assist users in-person or through remote communications in problem resolution.
The ability to configure a WLAN client for connectivity is paramount with an understanding of the configuration process for SSIDs, security settings and other client adapter settings. This individual is not responsible for WLAN design, analysis or security design; however, the CWT should be able to gather information from a design specification document to properly configure an AP and troubleshoot individual connection issues.
The CWT may not be aware of the actual WLAN architectural design, the RF design or the full feature set in use to implement the WLAN. The CWT certification is an entry-level WLAN certification from the vendor-neutral CWNP organization that brought you CWNA and other advanced certifications. To earn the CWT certification, you must pass an online exam with a score of 70% or higher.
Upon completing this course, the learner will be able to meet these overall objectives:
RF Frequency Fundamentals
Antennas and Accessories
The 802.11 Channels and Operations
WLAN Clients : Features and Capabilities
WLAN Clients: configuration and Management
WLAN APS: Hardware and Mounting
WLAN APs: Configuration and Management
WLAN Security
Troubleshooting Connection Issues
Instructor Demo
IT Support and those installing APs.
Students should have basic networking knowledge, including understanding of the OSI Reference model.
