Overview of the Signal Strength in Connected Wireless Hosts

Post by ngg.online »

Hi,

I think it would be nice to have an overview of the signal strength of the connected wireless hosts in the Connected Hosts menu. Thus one would be able to reposition the router and observe how the signal to the hosts changes.

I am sorry if this feature was requested already. I could not find a post about it.

I personally think it is a very useful thing to have. I got used to it in Tomato and I really miss it in Gargoyle.

It would be nice to hear what the developers think about the issue, would it be easy to implement, as there is something similar to that in the wireless bridge mode, when one is scanning for other WiFi networks, and where it stays on the agenda.

Thanks.

I also think that such feature would be very useful.
Especially for monitoring of connected host, and WDS links.
