For Wi-Fi networks, the intensity of a signal is displayed in
five levels or “bands.” The signal from the connected access
point is displayed in the bands surrounding the PC icon at the
center of the map. The closer to the center, the stronger the
connection. Placing the pointer over the displayed “point of
light” shows detailed information about the wireless device.

The wireless device shown near the center of the map is not
necessarily near your notebook computer. If a wireless device
located a distance away also has a strong signal, it appears
near the center of the map as well.

The Search for Wireless Devices feature identifies if a device
is IEEE 802.11a, b, or g. It also includes an option to display
hidden access point availability.
