The rate at which your client adapter is currently transmitting
data packets.

The name of the access point to which your client adapter is
associated. It is shown only if the client adapter is in
infrastructure mode, the access point was configured with a name,
and Aironet Extensions are enabled (on access points running
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)JA or greater).
The MAC address of the access point to which your client adapter
is associated. It is shown only if the client adapter is in
infrastructure mode.
Note
This field displays the MAC address of the access point's
Ethernet port (for access points that do not run Cisco IOS)
or the MAC address of the access point's radio (for access
points that run Cisco IOS). The MAC address of the
Ethernet port on access points that run Cisco IOS is
printed on a label on the back of the device.
The signal strength for all received packets. The higher the value
and the more green the bar graph is, the stronger the signal.

The signal quality for all received packets. The higher the value
and the more green the bar graph is, the clearer the signal.

Note
This setting appears only for 2.4-GHz client adapters and
only if you selected signal strength to be displayed as a
percentage. See the Signal Strength Display Units
parameter in
