Model: Adapter  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 4.1.4

Omada Controller v4.1.5 doesn't seem to have the Wifi signal strength of the connected clients like the older v3.2.10 had.  I was wondering if we could get that added back in.

@DataMeister, I suggest to just turn it on:

 

 

 

It now even reports the signal quality in addition to the RSSI:

Thanks. I didn't realize that was a scrolling drop down box. The downside to the recent trend of disappearing scroll bars I guess.

 

I mean, that doesn't look like there are more options unless you put your mouse over one. Even then it is subtle.

DataMeister, you're welcome.

 

Yes, the menu is a bit hidden. The icon should better be a wrench or a gear wheel icon in my opinion.

I more thing I noticed, the history does not show when you go to clients. The only way I can check history is through insights and past guest authorization. Any insights? May be I just have to enable something. I am only using  one EAP.
