For Wi-Fi®networks, the intensity of a signal is displayed in five levels or “bands.” The signal from the connected access point is displayed in the bands surrounding the computer icon at the center of the map. The closer to the center, the stronger the connection. Placing the pointer over the displayed “point of light” shows detailed information about the wireless device.

NOTE

The wireless device shown near the center of the map is not

 

necessarily near your notebook computer. If a wireless device

 

located a distance away also has a strong signal, it appears near the

 

center of the map as well.

 

 

The Search for Wireless Devices feature identifies if a device is IEEE 802.11a, b, or g. It also includes an option to display hidden access point availability.
