The Ekahau Sidekick Power Suppy Model is VEC65US24

If you are looking for a quick replacement of your Ekahau Sidekick's Power Supply, look no further.  I'm only posting this because I was in an emergency moment where I had forgot mine and it took awhile to even find the part # or think I was going to have to pay over $100.00 to even get it from the places we'd normally look.

There is nothing special to the adapter and it is widely available and you can get it shipped quickly.  I'll also save you the time:  No - unless you know someone else with on in the city you are working in, you will be SOL to find this locally anywhere for sale unless you can physically drive to a place like Newark and hope that their site near you is the distribution site.  I'd recommend calling first.

The model is VEC65US24

(VEF65US24 is the same exact power specs as above and will work but this could void your Sidekick warranty since it's not the exact same one.)


I'm going to give a shout out to Newark https://www.newark.com as they will be the company that will get your item shipped out faster than anyone else I could find on the internet.


Here is Newark's shipping times/cut-offs just in case you are in one of those OMG I forgot my power for my Sidekick moments.  Hopefully you have a full charge for the first day.

Finding WLAN issues from the Windows Client Side

What happens when you've done everything from the wifi side of diagnosis a problem dare I say a ghost problem? What if the situation within your network seems perfect, you can't find anything in packet captures, Prime or off your WLC - What other options do you have?  Luckily, I found plenty! One of the handiest tools I like to use when onsite and starting to check clients out is the NETSH command in command line. Doing a roaming analysis via the client versus on Prime isn't a bad thing some days to give you a real world perspective of when roams happen.  Of course, client debugging in WLCs help too but I figured I'd show you what I do when walking around with a laptop to see the BSSID you are connected to. I use  netsh wlan show interface  Which outputs this:     Name                   : Wi-Fi     Description            : Marvell ...
Ekahau Sidekick Accessory Testing by the WifiSpy I decided to test two products to augment my Surface Pro 4 running Ekahau 10 that will help prevent accidents from happening with the cable and allow free and easy movement as you survey.  Safety should be #1 if you do work in any production/warehousing/manufacturing facilities. The items tested today were Griffin Breaksafe Magnetic Breakaway USB Adapter, Standard USB Type a  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0759FKCK8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1  priced at 19.99 at the time of the writing. The other was this coiled USB to Micro-USB cable.   https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071D8VB2T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1   So first I will talk about the Griffin device.  Why would you want something like this?  If you've owned a MacBook in the past with the breakaway power cord, there isn't much more I can say ab...
