Access Point (AP) List Tab
To view a list of all available networks in your area, select the “AP
List” tab. In the window, you will be presented with a list showing you
the available networks.
(a) Network Name
This column shows you the name of the wireless network that is
available. On the left side of the network name are small icons which
tell you certain things about the network. A blue circle around the
network icon (e) indicates that you are currently connected to this
network. A small padlock (f) next to a network name indicates that
this network is secured (either by WEP or WPA encryption). It is not
possible to connect to a secured network without the proper network key.
(b) Band
This column shows you which band the network is operating on. “G”
indicates that this is 802.11g based network. “B” indicates this is an
802.11b based network.
(c) Signal
This column indicates the signal strength of the wireless network.
Typically, the stronger the signal strength, the closer the network is to
your physical location. The lower the signal strength, the further away
from the network you are.
