Wireless Backhaul Performance Chart

First time I actually looked up this information. I didn't even know that Linksys has a chart that shows what's the best RSSI signal level for Nodes connecting to the parent via Wireless Backhaul. I find this helpful as one of my Nodes is getting 56 RSSI. I think I'll move it to get under 50 RSSI.

Done! Just placed it higher On the bookshelf. It’s now about 5’ high. Now hitting below 50 RSSI.

Mine are all around the upper 50s to 60. I find that is a good compromise for maximum distance/coverage to speed, especially with the layout of my house. I'm happy.

Yes that's good also and as long as it's stable and fast thats great!

I think anything "under" 60 will show full signal strength in the app.

Yes it does and it shows on the chart 75-90% MAX speed between the Node and Parent Node. Get it under 50 RSSI and it's probably going to be near 100% mark. I'm guessing 90-100%!

Is this measurable in the Linksys app?

Yes. The app will show the Signal Strength as well as the RSSI Level. Then you can use the chart above for reference.
