The Site Survey screen displays a list of available networks in the table on the left. The table shows each network’s SSID, Channel, and the quality of the wireless signal the Adapter is receiving. You may click SSID, CH (Channel), or Signal, to sort by that field.
SSID - The SSID or unique name of the wireless network is displayed here.
CH - This is the channel that the network uses.
Signal - This is the percentage of signal strength, from 0 to 100%.
The Access Points in the Site Survey list will be represented with different icons that will indicate Access Points in various states of classification. For instance, trusted Access Points are green, untrusted Access Points are red, and unclassified Access Points are blue. And if there is a lock next to it, it indicates the Access Point has a security method enabled.
