Publishing data from testing Wi-Fi vs distance signal strength testing
For years, I looked online for relational graphing of how Wi-Fi signal strength deteriated over distance. I was aware of Free Space Path Loss formula stating that it should be logarithmic, but I still had questions.
- How far from an access point can I connect to a 2.4 GHz access point? How does 5 GHz compare?
- How do I compare which signal will be stronger? for how far?
- How fast can these bands handle at different ranges?
I could never find anything besides "theoretical maximum"...
