Spectrum24 Network Configuration
The Signal Property Page displays the following information:
A graph displays signal quality from 0 to 100 percent. The terminal continuously
looks for a stronger signal from a different access point on the network, and roams
to that access point if the quality of the radio signal drops below an acceptable level.
The bottom of the Signal page displays the current signal quality, the number of times
the terminal has roamed, the current data rate, and the network in-range status .
