rgoldman Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 I am using airomon-ng to get the station power levels. I understand that the client update rate is set for 10-20 seconds which causes a delay in displaying the changes in the power when the station device is moved. How do I change / lower the update rate so the power levels change quicker? Also, why do some devices show a power level of -127 even though they are close to the client (router)? Thanks.

digip Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) Power level, or decibel level for radio signals? Larger the negative number I think means closer the client or AP. something like a -1, is like, out of reach or really far away, and most likely, not going to be able to connect to it, but should be able to send commands to it, like a deauth, etc. As for rate of update on airodump-ng(airmon-ng and airmon-zc put the card in monitor mode, airodump-ng lets you monitor AP's), thats part of the aircrack suite. I'd check their wiki, the help file itself (ie: airodump-ng --help) and man pages if they have one. http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=airodump-ng "--update" looks like what you might want to try when starting up airodump-ng.
