Site Monitor Tab
The Site Monitor tab displays the general information of the wireless networks available in
the air and you can select the network you want to connect with by double-clicking on the
network’s name. In addition, you can use the Site Monitor feature to display the
communications quality of your computer with multiple APs or clients in its vicinity. The Site
Monitor allows you to conduct a site survey to:
!
Determine the overall wireless coverage of your wireless network.
!
Optimize placement of the Access Point(s), to provide seamless connectivity to mobile
stations.
!
Roam throughout the wireless network environment with your station, you will be able to
identify areas that may not have adequate coverage, or that suffer from interference by
other (wireless) equipment such as microwave ovens.
The list will update automatically to display all visible networks. Click Freeze checkbox to
freeze the list box so that you can calmly read the information inside it. In addition, it will stop
the search for available network. To display only the Ad Hoc network, enable the Ad hoc
networks only checkbox.
