xfce4-wavelan-plugin
A plugin used to display stats from a wireless LAN interface.
xfce4-wavelan-plugin displays the following information about a WaveLAN device:
- Signal state (tells if a carrier signal was detected)
- Signal quality (current quality of the carrier signal)
- Note that the latter is in % on Linux and in dBm on BSDs. Hence, on BSDs, the progressbar may be never full, as dBm is not easily comparable to a maximum.
- Network name (current SSID of the WaveLAN network)
At the time of this writing NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and Linux are supported.
The plugin shows signal quality as a percentage on Linux and as dBm on BSDs. Therefore, the progressbar will probably be not really accurate on BSDs, as dBm is hardly comparable to a maximum.
Usage
Add the plugin to the panel, and select the wireless interface you want to monitor.
