*Availability: Linux only*
If ``nmcli`` is available on the system, Glances displays the hotspot name,
the security type and the Wi-Fi signal quality:

.. image:: ../_static/wifi.png
or, as a backup, the file ``/proc/net/wireless`` is used to display the signal quality:

In the configuration file, you can define signal quality thresholds:
- ``"Poor"`` quality is between -100 and -85dBm
- ``"Good"`` quality between -85 and -60dBm
- ``"Excellent"`` between -60 and -40dBm
Thresholds for the signal quality can be defined in the configuration file:
