LinkVision

LinkVision turns your fleet of Wi-Fi and network testers into a single, always-current dashboard. Sign in with your Link-Live cloud account and every unit, autotest result, and captured file your testers have already uploaded syncs straight to your phone, tablet, or Mac — no extra hardware pairing, no manual exports. FLEET AT A GLANCE See every tester's online/offline status, recent pass/fail trend, and open issues on one Home board. Results roll up automatically into Sites so multi-unit deployments read as one location instead of a list of serial numbers. RESULTS, BUILT FOR TROUBLESHOOTING Every autotest — DHCP, DNS, gateway, PoE, web, ethernet, wireless, Nmap, iPerf, and LANBERT performance — gets a stage-by-stage breakdown with clear pass/warn/fail/blocked verdicts, not just a raw log dump. Search and filter results and files locally, including natural-language filtering, and export any result as a shareable PDF report. WIRELESS PACKET CAPTURE WORKBENCH Open any PCAP capture into a purpose-built analysis workbench: an automatic health score with ranked, deep-linkable findings; an access-point and client inventory that correctly collapses multi-SSID radios into a single physical AP; RSSI, channel, and PHY-rate charts; a filterable packet list; and a detailed 802.11 information-element inspector with vendor lookup — all without leaving the app. ON-DEVICE INTELLIGENCE On supported hardware, LinkVision can generate a plain-language brief of your fleet's health and let you ask follow-up questions — entirely on-device using Apple Intelligence. Your results never need to leave your device for this. TRENDS OVER TIME Track pass rate and issue trends across your fleet over configurable date ranges to spot a flaky AP or a degrading link before it becomes a ticket. FREE AND PRO LinkVision is free to use with one selected tester and 14 days of result history. LinkVision Pro unlocks your full fleet: unlimited testers, complete history and sync, the Sites board, the full PCAP wireless workbench, on-device Apple Intelligence briefs, and longer trend ranges. Pro includes a 7-day free trial; subscriptions are billed via your Apple ID and can be managed or cancelled anytime in Settings. REQUIREMENTS LinkVision requires an existing Link-Live cloud account with at least one tester already reporting results — it's a companion app for hardware you already own and manage, not a standalone tester. LinkVision is an independent app and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by NetAlly, LLC. "Link-Live" is referenced only to describe interoperability with that service.
