–This is the signal strength of the signal being received from
the other unit. A great signal strength is between –40 and –60dBm.
If around –30 then signal is too strong and power level should be
reduced. The unit stops working at –90dBm so you don’t want to
operate close to –90dBm or else the connection won’t be reliable.
L.
Tx Rate
- This is the transmit rate of this unit in Mbps. A perfect
rate is 54. Normally on a great connection the Tx rate will wander
between 30 and 54. If Tx rate is 1 there is a major problem, usually
bad interference on the selected channel. If the Tx rate is zero then
there is no connection.
