Hello,

Wireshark doesn't display the RSSI value in dBm, only in percent.
This happens with APC files captured with Airopeek.

Is this a limitation?
Are you sure the dBm values are present in the capture file? According to http://www.wildpackets.com/elements/whitepapers/Converting_Signal_Strength.pdf, WildPackets prefers to use percentage values.
