4.2.4 Signal Survey
Operation Mode -> Setup -> Site Survey -> Signal Survey
The Signal Survey will continuously display the RSSI value of the selected SSID for
antenna alignment purpose. To use Signal Survey function, please enter the “Site Survey”
function first; please refer to the instruction in the above section. Once you select the
ESSID and click on the “Signal Survey” button, the following screen will appear.
„
BSSID : This is the remote AP’s MAC address.
„
Channel : The current scanned channel
„
Signal Strength : This is the RSSI value. It will refresh itself every second. The smaller
the absolute value of the RSSI, the stronger the signal. For example -38dbm is
stronger than -70dBm.
4.2.5 Radio Mode (11a, SuperA, TurboA)
Operation Mode -> Setup -> Radio Mode
A.DUO has 4 different options for WLAN transmission. All devices in the same network
should use the same WLAN mode.
„
11a mode (normal-A): This is the IEEE standard for WiFi operating in 5GHz frequency
band. 11a is the most stable mode. If you are getting packet loss or disconnection
using Super-A or Turbo-A mode. Please use 11a mode instead.
„
SuperA without Turbo: Super-A add Bursting, Compression, and Fast Frames to
increase the speed over 11a mode. If you live in countries that prohibit the channel
binding technology (i.e. Europe), you should choose “Super-A” If you need more speed
than 11a mode. However, this mode is not as stable as 11a mode.
