Why do I need a product like Squid?
RSSI to signal strength bar mapping varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. This graphical representation of RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) found all most cell phones is a general guage that is neither real time nor accurate to professional standards. Squid™ compares multiple carrier network signal strength with realtime, RSSI measurements in true dBm.
