Feature Request: Wi-Fi Strength Indicator

Product support
1

I have various devices placed in locations that don’t have great wifi coverage. I’d like to be able to see some kind of wifi strength indicator in the balenaCloud dashboard and maybe even sort my devices by strength so I can identify trouble spots. I picture it being pretty similar to temperature and CPU usage visuals.

I know wifi strength is a finnicky thing to deal with, but even just a “excellent, good, ok, weak, poor” system would be sufficient for most cases I think.

Thoughts?

Hi @archetypesc, welcome to the forums!

Thanks for the feedback, that’s a great idea! We have made a note about this to discuss internally. In the meantime if you feel motivated to prototype a balena block to test this idea, that will certainly be useful for others (and us).

Thanks again!
