I have a question concerning my dell WLAN wireless card. I use a linkysys wireless router and I can see the units of dBm when I look at the networking status. But I can't seem to find a table or formula for changing dBm to RSSI for Dell wireless cards. I've heard that there is no linear equation and that it varies by manufacturer, but WildPackets.com seems to have a system for Cisco products. Does anyone know what I could use for my Dell card? I really hope someone can help me.
