Signal Recorder

Recording the signal strength
The signal recorder displays or records the received signal strength of the connected access
point. Using this data, you can locate areas with an inadequate signal strength. The signal
recorder can be particularly useful when the client moves along a fixed path.
Note
This tab is only available in the client mode. The WLAN interface of the device must be
enabled, otherwise no recording is possible.
