The previous screen dealt with Ethernet-related information. The Radio
Packet Statistics screen (Figure 3-45) contains statistics that relate
directly to over-the-air transmission of data. It provides valuable insight
into the quality of the RF link between entraNET radios with respect to
the handling of data packets.
