Hi, I can't seem to get readings for signal strength of associated clients. It just says link quality 0. Do I have to add them to the access control list editor before it gives readings? I tried a few different agere cards in my starOS cpu and it still wouldn't give any signal readings from my pocketpc with a silver card in it. The pocketpc would show test results just fine from the client manager.
FYI, I tried the YDI ruby card, the agere OEM w/out integrated antenna, and a orinoco silver card in my StarOS box. I don't have WEP enabled either.

Sweet OS btw, I think we're going up to our first tower tonight around midnight and swapping out a freeBSD AP for this.

You will get a signal reading once the client sends some data. You will find that it performs quite well. Let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks!
