We have several WAX650S in use in various locations. Some are in dense areas with other AP's from neighbours. While we can "see" this nice list of detected AP's, there's no measured signal strength (min, max, average) that could help with manual channel settings on our AP's. We forced to use a separate device to measure strength, but it would be nice if the AP's could take some signal strength statistics too.

    Hi @Pbee

    May I know the place you mentioned is Monitor > Wireless > Detected Device?

    Correct.

    Having snapshots of measured signal strength would greatly help in finding rogue, temporary AP's and adjusting channel configurations. If there was some logging possible via SysLog or SNMP, that would be perfect.
