Poor Wi-Fi Coverage

This screen shows a different period and area in which the application disconnected (the Wi-Fi icon does not display).
Few neighboring APs (a small number of thin line plots) indicate poor coverage, and the RSSI of the connected AP (thick line) drops to an exceedingly low level (-85 dBm), which leads to Wi-Fi disconnection (vertical red line) coinciding with application failure (disconnection).

RSSI drops to -85 dBm due to Wi-Fi coverage gap
In this deployment, a large Wi-Fi coverage gap in a specific location causes poor coverage. To address this coverage deficiency, add APs in locations with these gaps, and/or correct the AP beaconing transmit power to increase RF cell sizes.
After taking corrective action, re-run the Device’s Coverage View feature while performing the application use cases, and compare outcomes to confirm the updates were successful.
