Important Indicators to Monitor
The Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) identifies the communication quality of the
radio path between the initiator station (i.e. the Access Point) and its remote link
test partner.
The color of the SNR indicator, the link quality indicator, and the remote levels
indicators relate to the following levels of communications quality:
If the level of SNR is lower than expected the signal and noise level indicators
may help you investigate the cause.

A low signal level indicates that the “strength” of the radio signal is fairly
low, i.e. the Access Point selected link test partner has moved “out-of-
range”.
