C-1. Site Survey
When the Site Survey screen is displa yed, the channel quality of all 14 radio channels will be
displayed. These channel quality measurements are shown on each gauge for the 14 radio
channels. The
higher
the blue bar is, the
better
quality you have (i.e., less interference).
The channel quality is scanned channel-by-channel repeatedly. You may see some of the
gauges changing their height occasionally. To determine the channel quality in a longer time span,
you can refer to the average channel quality measurement from the small-shaped dot in each
channel quality gauge.
