When diagnosing wireless problems, it's important to know your signal strength. In this tutorial, we look at different ways to see your Wi-Fi signal strength.

Video tutorial:



View Wireless Network Signal Strength in Windows 10 in PowerShell or Command Prompt

It's important to note that most of the time when you view your signal strength, the results are displayed as "bars." Typically, there are 3-5 bars, and those results are generic. By using the Command Prompt, you can get an exact percentage, and it's the best way to get an accurate number.

Open the Command Prompt or PowerShell and type in the following:

Command Prompt:
netsh wlan show interfaces

PowerShell:
netsh wlan show interfaces or
(netsh wlan show interfaces) -Match '^s+Signal' -Replace '^s+Signals+:s+',''



View Wireless Network Signal Strength in Windows 10 in Taskbar

Everyone should know you can look in the lower right corner of your screen. More bars means a better signal.

If you click the wireless icon, you can see the strength of multiple Wi-Fi connections, if applicable.

View Wireless Network Signal Strength in Windows 10 in Settings

Click Start > Settings > Network & Internet. Click on Wi-Fi or Status. Your connection appears near the top center.



View Wireless Network Signal Strength in Windows 10 in Control Panel

Open the Control Panel and click on Network and Sharing Center.

You can see your Wi-Fi strength under View your active networks or click on your connection for a better view of the bars.



You can also click on Change Adapter Settings for a different view.
