The display of signal quality on the LEDs must be activated for the wireless
LAN interface (LANconfig:
Wireless LAN
General
Physical WLAN
settings
Operation
). The faster the LED blinks the better the connection
(a blinking frequency of 1 Hz represents a signal quality of 10 dB, double the
frequency indicates that the signal strength is twice as high).
In LANmonitor the connection quality display is opened with the context
menu. Right-clicking with the mouse on 'Point-to-point' activates the option
'Adjusting Point-to-Point WLAN Antennas...'
The 'Point-to-point' entry is only visible in the LANmonitor if the
monitored device has at least one base station defined as a remote
site for a P2P connection (LANconfig:
Wireless LAN
General
Physical WLAN settings
Point- to- Point
).
In the dialog for setting up point-to-point connections, LANmonitor prompts
for the information required to establish the P2P connection:
Is the P2P connection configured at both ends (remote base station defi-
ned with MAC address or station name)?
Is the point-to-point mode of operation activated?
Which access point is to be monitored? All of the base stations defined as
P2P remote sites in the device concerned can be selected here.
