I
each pair of access point and client test locations. Larger numbers indicate
better throughput. You can sort this list in ascending or descending order by
clicking the Throughput column head.

I
round trip from the client to the access point, in milliseconds. Smaller numbers

The Site Survey utility recommends access point locations based purely on the test
numbers. You can use the recommendations to guide your decision about access
point locations. For example, you may decide, based on factors such as where
users will most often be located or your own special knowledge about the test
results, that a location other than the most recommended is the best for your site.
