Packet Statistics Menu
(See
Packet Statistics Menu on Page 90
)
This screen provides detailed information on data exchanges between
the unit being viewed and the network through the wireless and the
Ethernet (data) layers. These include:
The most significant fields are the
Packets Dropped
,
Retries
,
Retry
Errors
,
Receive Errors
and
Lost Carrier Detected
. If the data values are
more than 10% of their sent and received counterparts, or the
Lost Car-
rier Detected
value is greater than a few dozen, there may be trouble
with radio-frequency interference or a radio link of marginal strength.
Review the
RSSI by Zone Screen’s
values (
Page 86
) for zones that are
more than 2 dB (decibels) below the average level, and for signal level
values that are likely to provide marginal service. For example, an
average level is less than –85 dBm during normal conditions with a data
rate of 256 kbps.
If the RSSI levels in each zone are within a few dB of each other, but
less than –85 dBm, then a check should be made of the aiming of the
antenna system and for a satisfactory SWR. Refer to
RADIO (RF) MEA-
SUREMENTS
on Page 132
for information on antenna system checks.
NOTE:
For a data rate of 512 kbps (1 Mbps for ESS-II), the average
signal level should be –77 dBm or stronger with no interfer-
ence.
