How do I check the Wi-Fi signal strength using the ARRIS SURFboard Manager app?
Answer
The ARRIS SURFboard Manager app allows a Spot Check of the Wi-Fi signal strength. This will help indicate the strength of the Wi-Fi signal in a particular location. This document describes how to check the Wi-Fi signal strength in the ARRIS SURFboard Manager app.
Check Wi-Fi Signal Strength
Tap the SURFboard icon.  The Login screen will appear. Â
On the Login screen, enter admin in the Username field and password in the Password field.
NOTE: If the default login credentials were previously changed please enter custom credentials.  If the customized login credentials are forgotten a factory reset must be performed by pressing the reset button for more than 10 seconds on the SURFboard Wi-Fi product.  This will erase all customized settings and reset to the original factory default settings. Â
Tap the Login button.  The ARRIS home screen will appear.
Â
On the SURFboard Home screen, tap the Wi-Fi icon in the Status section. The Wi-Fi Spot Meter screen will appear.
Â
The Wi-Fi Spot Meter uses color codes and bar height to indicate the signal strength.
