The History Graphs
articular, the Signal Strength bar area graphically represents the
strength of the synchronization signal your Modem is receiving
from BTS. The strength of the signal is represented by a group of
colored bars. The higher the pile of bars goes, the stronger the
signal is. The color of the bars also gives an indication of the
strength of the signal. Green lines indicate an excellent signal.
Orange lines indicate a good signal while red lines indicate a weak
signal.
The Signal Quality bar area graphically represents the Signal-to-
Noise Ratio (SNR) received by your Modem. Again, the quality of
the signal is represented by a group of colored bars. The higher the
pile of bars goes, the better the SNR of the signal. The color of the
bars also gives an indication of the quality of the signal. Green
lines indicate an excellent signal or an SNR greater than 21.
Orange lines indicate a good signal or an SNR greater than or equal
to 13 but less than or equal to 21. Red lines indicate a weak signal
or an SNR less than 13.
To increase the strength and quality of the signal, change the
location of your Modem. Try moving it closer to a window, to a
higher location, away from other wireless devices (microwave
ovens, cordless phones), and away from metal objects (shelves, file
cabinets). As you reposition your Modem, watch the Signal
Strength and Signal Quality bars on the NavDiag screen. Place
your Modem in the location where you receive the most green
signal strength and quality bars.
The History graphs plot the change in signal strength and signal
quality over time. The graphs cover the last minute and are updated
every second. Read the graphs from right to left. The right side of
the graph represents the most recent status of your Modem.
