¾In AP or Bridge mode, all the four LEDs will light up.

¾In Client or Repeater mode, the corresponding LED(s) will light up when the RSSI value (wireless signal strength value) reaches the RSSI Threshold. The value of RSSI Threshold can be set on Wireless Advanced Settings page as shown in Figure 4-26.
