•Receive Signal Strength: The Signal bar displays the signal strength for the last packet received by the adapter. Signal strength is reported in decibels (dB). The color-coded chart below the Signal bar indicates the relative strength of the sig- nal: a signal in the red or orange section indicates a weak connection; a signal in the yellow or light green section indicates a good connection; a signal in the darker green section indicates an excellent connection.

•Instantaneous Packets/Sec Received: This statistic displays the current rate at which the adapter is receiving packets from another 802.11a device. This infor- mation is represented as the number of packets received per second and is plot- ted on the graph located below the Packets/sec field. Note that this statistic will remain zero unless the adapter is receiving data from another device.

•Average Packets/Sec Received: This statistic displays the average number of packets received by the adapter each second since the utility was launched.
