Default measuring signal strength on xp



hello

windows xp shows a little green bar plot to indicate how well the
signal strength of a wireless connection is.

text file. how can i do that?

you cannot tell it to put it in a text file. You might be able to program
something that will do it however.

Doesn't the wireless card utility normally have logging?

My Belkin card has a utility that tracks SNR/signal/noise values every 6 seconds
which I can open in excel and then show as a graph.
