xfce4-wavelan-plugin

Xfce4-wavelan-plugin is 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.
