Re: export RSSI over time

Vistumbler 10.2 doesn't support RSSI, it displays signal in % value. The best export format for you is probably 'Detailed CSV'. This will export the all AP history, which by default is about every second

If you want to get an estimated RSSI based on the signal % value, I have been using the following formula in vistumbler
$InSig = Signal % Value
$dBmDissociationSignal = -85
$dBmMaxSignal = -30
$RSSI = ((($dBmMaxSignal - $dBmDissociationSignal) * $InSig) - (20 * $dBmMaxSignal) + (100 * $dBmDissociationSignal)) / 80


If you look at the latest beta (10.3 Beta 16 right now) I have updated the native wifi UDF I use and started to implement RSSI, Right now it is only available in the gui since I have not updated the export formats yet (this should happen before the final release)
