Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for operating and maintaining a data network, and for detecting problems such as signal leakage. In one implementation, a computing device may determine, based on availability and location, one or more mobile devices and may cause the mobile devices to detect a wireless signal. The detected wireless signal may be identified as having leaked from a network, such as a wired network, and used to detect the source of leaks.
