As an aside I did contact the makers of the Smartid detector and I
was told That one red light is approx. -70db signal and 2 lights
approx -64db signal. The only chance I've had so far of checking my
stuff out is sitting with a borrowed laptop in a 1 to 2 signal area
and
getting full 11Mbps connection.
