Cookware Inc.(www.eakiu.com), Hawaii-based developer of Apple and Mac software, hasofficially released EaKiu Remote for iPhone. Adding to the popular 2-Dand 3-D features of EaKiu for OS X, the new app brings about the freedom of mobility with its portable remote viewing capability of Wi-Spy spectrum data in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, greatly expanding the troubleshooting and optimization possibilities for Wi-Fi networks, RFIDsystems, sensor networks or any application where maintaining a clear and reliable signal is critical.

MetaGeek’s line of Wi-Spy Spectrum Analyzers scan the airwaves for radio activity in theunlicensed "public" bands where Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and many other wireless devices operate. EaKiu Remote software allows users to set upa Wi-Spy to scan an area and view the data it produces through theirApple iPhone. With this, those who deploy and maintain wireless networks can monitor their wireless landscape for interference and avoid it, or track down offending devices.
