dBm or more. Noise levels significantly higher than this are an indication of a high level of interference that
may degrade the performance of the link. High noise levels can often be mitigated with band pass filters,
antenna placement, or antenna polarization.

Notes

Any additional information provided about the transceiver as defined in the Notes parameter on the Tools tab.
For more information, see "Providing Site Information" on page 20.

Packets Dropped

The number of Ethernet packets the transceiver has thrown away due to its data buffer being full.

Packets Sent

The number of Ethernet packets and bytes of data the transceiver has sent over its radio link.

Peer to Peer Packets

Note: This statistic is only valid in a MultiPoint Gateway.

The number of packets the Gateway has received from the radio link and re-transmitted out, as the destination
address was determined to be across the radio link.

Radio Addressed Packets

The number of packets sent over the transceiver where another transceiver in the wireless network was the
packet destination.

Radio Parse Error

The number or errors in data transmission between the Ethernet stack and the transceiver interface.

Received

The number of Ethernet packets and bytes of data the transceiver has received over its radio link.

Reflected Power

A measurement of the transmitted power that is reflected back into the transceiver from mismatched
antennas, mismatched cables, or loose connections between the transceiver and the antenna.

A reading of 0 to 5 is good; 5 to 29 is acceptable to marginal; 30+ is unacceptable and indicates that the
connections should be inspected for loose connections and cable quality.

RX Success Rate

Note: This statistic is only valid in a MultiPoint network.

The percentage of packets successfully received by this transceiver. This statistic displays 0.00% in a
MultiPoint Gateway. FreeWave recommends a minimum 75% success rate or proper transceiver operation.

RX Throughput

The throughput of data being received over the radio link within the last 1 second.
