The almighty WiFi connection reigns supreme at any office, and when it goes down, business comes crashing with it. Slow connections are responsible for an average revenue loss of $4,100 per hour, and it doesn’t help that businesses increasingly rely on bandwidth-intensive applications such as cloud-based file sharing and SaaS platforms.

And if you’re a remote worker whose lifeblood rests in your email inbox? Well, the second your home WiFi connection goes, so too does your livelihood. *Not* cool. Sure, some folks have tried outlandish ways of circumventing private WiFi usage, including opting exclusively for public hotspots, but experts highly recommend avoiding that for security reasons.

Besides, it’s not like you want to squander your precious data on things like app downloads only to wake up one morning blindsided by a *ridonkulous* surcharge. Fine-tuning your existing private wireless network is the way to go, and NetSpot Home could provide a great all-in-one solution. At the very least, it’s super cheap and worth a try.

This handy app helps you optimize your wireless network with tools to safeguard, manage, and troubleshoot your connection. It’s designed to prevent wireless issues before they even occur, and offers you the ability to run tests on your internet download and upload speeds, export the results in sleek reports, and even assure that hotspots are placed correctly so that you can avoid unnecessary duress in the future.

And if any problems do come up? Conveniently, NetSpot Home offers an array of handy tools to address them, including a suite of powerful data visualization tools that let you easily collect, interpret, and apply data to troubleshooting solutions. You can use the visual map to pinpoint dead zones on a network, build a heatmap of that same network, and view any number of Access Points (BSSIDs) all at once. In other words, you’ll never spend hours going to war with your wireless network again.

A lifetime subscription to NetSpot Home normally goes for $68, but grab it today for just $19. You can choose from the Mac license here and the Windows license here, plus get an additional 15% off with the use of code MADNESS15 at checkout.
