•XXX1 through XXX4 are the last four digits of the access points’ MAC address. The primary access point (the access point which had the strongest signal to this Wireless Telephone) displays first, followed by the three access points with the next strongest signals.
•YY is the power level in dBm at which this Wireless Telephone heard the associated access point. Although shown as a positive number, YY represents negative dBm and lower numbers represent stronger signals. For example, a displayed value of 40 indicates
Note any areas that have inadequate dBm readings.
Detect Overlap or Conflicts

•XXX1 through XXX4 are the last four digits of the access points’ MAC address.
•ZZ is the channel number that the access point is using.
Note any areas that have access points that are in contention for the same channel.
It is preferable that no overlaps exist anywhere in your facility. If the site survey mode indicates two APs using the same channel, then at least one other AP must be indicated at 10 dBm stronger than those APs to avoid channel conflicts.
