Wi-Fi signal strength is measured in dBm, with values usually ranging from -30 dBm to -90 dBm. A value closer to 0 (e.g. -50 dBm) indicates a stronger, faster connection, while lower numbers (e.g. -80 dBm) indicates a weaker, slower, or unstable connection. -50 dBm to -60 dBm (Excellent/Good)-60 dBm to -70 dBm (Fair)-70 dBm to -80 dBm (Weak)-80 dBm to -90 dBm (Unusable)Walls and electronic interference will significantly drop the dBm value in your environment.
