Link Quality

is based on the percentage of successfully transmitted or received signal of the

associated access point beacon within a limited period. The higher the percentage, the better the

link quality. The bar graph beside also provides a visual interpretation of the current link quality. It is

note that the

Link Quality

and

Signal Strength

features only apply to the infrastructure mode. They

are inapplicable in the Ad-Hoc mode since data will be transferred from many different computers.

Signal Strength

You may learn the received signal strength of the baseband processor of the Beacon signal from the

Signal Strength

bar beside, and it’s also presented in terms of percentage. As the signal gets

stronger, you will see the signal percentage rate gets higher. It is noted that the

Signal Strength

and

Link Quality

features only apply to the Infrastructure mode. They are inapplicable in the Ad-Hoc

mode since data will be transferred from many different computers.
