2.1.1.7 DHCP Leases
The DHCP Leases section shows a table of MAC and IP addresses of connected computers with static
DHCP leases. They are specified in the Network > Interfaces > LAN > Static Leases section of the
device's configuration web page.
2.1.1.8 Link Status (for Station Mode)
The Link Status section only applies if the device operates as an 802.11ac station.
In the Link Status section on the Status > Overview web page, the value on the top left box denotes
the current received signal strength, e.g., -48 dBm. The box directly below it shows the current TX-CCQ
(transmission client connection quality), e.g., 71 %. The bottom left box shows a realtime graph of the
received signal strength over the last 60 seconds. The box directly to its right shows a realtime graph of
the TX-CCQ over the past 60 seconds.
On the right of this section, there are 3 vertical bars. Each bar shows the current received signal strength
of each antenna, e.g., -53 dBm, -44 dBm, and -48 dBm. If the radio has only 2 antennas, the third
vertical bar is given a default value of -95 dBm.

Enable Alignment Buzzer: When enabled, the board would continually emit beeping sounds to
indicate the received signal strength. Every 3 seconds, the board would emit a number of beeps (1 to
4) in quick succession. The number of beeps is the same as the number of lighted Signal strength
indicator LEDs. Just like for LEDs, more beeps indicate a higher received signal strength. This is useful
for a person aligning directional antennas at a height, in an outdoor scenario, if the LEDs are not
visible. Another person on the ground could adjust the threshold values for the LEDs. There is some
delay before the received signal strength gets reported by the alignment buzzer. To turn off the
beeping sounds, click the Disable Alignment Buzzer button.
