What are the meanings of the WS323 signal indicator?
The WS323 signal indicator only works in Wi-Fi repeater and Wi-Fi client
modes.
The number of lightened bars shows the network signal strength. Three
bars mean the network signals are strong, two bars mean the network
signals are good, and one bar means the network signals are weak. It is
recommended that you use the WS323 in a network where the signal
strength is strong or good.
