Description
The signal quality for all received packets. The higher the value
and the more green the bar graph is, the clearer the signal.
The histogram below the bar graph provides a visual
interpretation of the current signal quality. Differences in signal
quality are indicated by the following colors: green (highest
quality), yellow (average), and red (lowest quality).
Range: 0 to 100%
The rate at which your client adapter is transmitting or receiving
packets to or from its associated access point.
The Link Speed histogram provides a visual interpretation of the
current rate at which your client adapter is transmitting or
receiving packets. Differences in link speed are indicated by the
following colors: green (fastest), yellow (middle of the range),
and red (slowest).
Value: 1, 2, 5.5, or 11 Mbps
The client adapter's ability to communicate with the access point.
Value: Not Associated, Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent
The percentage of packets that have been transmitted based on the
number specified in the Number of Packets field.
The percentage of packets that were transmitted successfully.
The Percent Successful histogram provides a visual interpretation
of the percentage of packets that are not lost. The value you set
for the Percent Success Threshold is indicated by the red line.
Percentages greater than or equal to this value are displayed as
green bars; percentages below this value are displayed as yellow
bars.
Note
The number of packets that were not transmitted successfully to
the access point.
The number of packets that were not received successfully from
the access point.
The percentage of packets that were retried for transmission.

Refer to the Percent Success Threshold parameter in
Table E-2 for more information.
This value is calculated as follows:
(number of retries x 100) / number of packets sent
If a lot of packets get lost, the number of retries could be
greater than the number of packets sent. Then this field
would show a value greater than 100%.
