Throughput—Shows the short term transmit and receive throughput in bytes/second, and is continuously updated.

Link Quality—Based on the quality of the received signal of the Access Point beacon. There are four states of link quality:

100%-80%

Excellent

 

 

80%-60%

Good

 

 

60%-30%

Fair

 

 

Under 30%

Poor or no connection

 

 

Signal Strength—Based on the received signal strength measurement of the baseband processor of the Beacon signal. Same as link quality, there are four states of signal strength:

100%-80%

Excellent

 

 

80%-60%

Good

 

 

60%-30%

Fair signal strength

 

 

Under 30%

Poor or no signal strength

 

 

You can click the Rescan button to force the radio to rescan all available channels. If your link quality or signal strength is poor, rescanning can be used to push the radio off a weak Access Point and search for a better link with another Access Point.

Loop Back

The Loop Back dialog box helps you examine data transmission quality between your USB Client and any workstation on the network. Enter the IP address of one local client and one remote client, adjust the Ping Interval and Packet Size (if necessary), and click Ping. If there is a reply, communication is successful.

In addition, you can run a proprietary loopback test by clicking the Loop Back button; this will verify the communication quality between your wireless client and Access Point. Click the Refresh button to set the counters back to 0.
