signal is received with at the WLAN antenna. The displayed signal strength is
an interpretation (No signal, verly low, low, good, very good, excellent) of the
RSSI (receiver signal strength indication) value for each network. The RSSI
values are mapped as follows:
• RSSI < -90 or WLAN network not seen at all => "No signal"
• RSSI >= -90 and < -81 => "Very low"
• RSSI >= -81 and < -71 => "Low"
• RSSI >= -71 and < -67 => "Good"
• RSSI >= -67 and < -57 => "Very good"
• RSSI >= -57 => "Excellent"
For ad hoc connections an RSSI value cannot be
provided. Thus "Available" will be shown if connected.
