SNR (convertion table for RSSI )

[asattari at site.uottawa.ca]

Hello All,

I have to measure SNR (db), I have two Wieless PC cards. My problem is , I
do not have a convertion table to RSSI and the method to convert to dbm
for lucent Orinoco Gold card that I am using. Since each vendor has its
specific method and value for Max_RSSI , I am not able to calculate the
SNR from the values that I get from cat /proc/net/wirelss . For example i
got for Orinonco:
                                                                           link
level
noise
                                                                           57
