Radio RSSI

The signal strength of the Radio Link is displayed here. The lower the number, the better the signal quality. For example -21dBm would be concidered a very good signal strength but a reading of -95dBm would be concidered a low signal strength. To help increase the signal strength you can elevate the Radio Receiver on the coop and also posotion the HomeHub in a higher location. Remember that heavy foliage and other obsticales will effect the overall signal quality.
