The Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and Wi-Fi 5 GHz menu items contain information about CPE wireless interfaces and their access points. Their layout is similar, and the Wi-Fi 5 GHz contains additional Channel availability overview section as well Rescan button which are not present in the Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz section
The General section contains the following information about the Wi-Fi interfaces:
- Status: interface status, either On or Off,
- Channel: wireless channel on which the interface operates (Reselect button allows to reselect channel if Chan nel option under the Settings/Wi-Fi menu item is set to auto),
- Band: radio channel width used by the interface,
- Mode: wireless mode of the wireless interface (802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n/ac),
- Tx Power: transmission power value (percentage) for the wireless interface
The Access point sections contain the following information about every configured Wi-Fi access point: - SSID: Service Set Identifier of the access point (Wi-Fi network name),
- BSSID: MAC address of the access point (Basic Service Set Identifier),
- Status: access point status, either On or Off, • Hidden: visibility setting of the access point,
- Encryption: data encryption algorithm of the access point. 13 Icotera A/S, Hovedvejen 3A, 2600 Glostrup, Denmark - info@icotera.com Document version: 1.1 User Guide for 1.0.0 Firmware The Counters section contains statistical information about data entering and leaving the interfaces per access point:
- Status: current status of a given interface, either Up or Down,
- Pkts in: number of incoming packets,
- Pkts out: number of outgoing packets,
- Bytes in: number of incoming bytes,
- Bytes out: number of outgoing bytes,
- Errors: transmission error counter,
- Collisions: collision counter. The Associated clients section lists all devices connected to the particular access point. Each device is described with the following parameters:
- IP address: IP address assigned to the device MAC Address: physical address of the connected device, •
- Hostname: connected device’s hostname,
- Expires: lease time of the device’s address,
- Mode: mode of operation,
- Sleep: if Yes, client is present but does not exchange traffic with host; if No, client is present and active,
- RSSI: Received Signal Strength Indicator,
- Tx bytes: transmitted bytes, •
- Tx rate: transmission rate,
- Tx failed: transmission failures,
- Rx bytes: received bytes. The wireless interface information section can be refreshed at any time with the Refresh button. As this section does not include any configurable options, the Reset, Save, and Apply buttons are disabled
