re: Connectus Interruptus Friday, October 16, 2009 at 5:26 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by MartinM (7549 messages posted) Signal strength is exactly what it says - how much signal is your PC getting from the wifi device you are trying to talk to. Connectivity is what happens (if you are lucky) as a result of receiving the above signal. It means that your PC and the wifi device are successfull in talking to each other. Just to illustrate, with an excellent signal your PC might still not be able to communicate with wifi device because you have the wrong security key: signal strong, connectivity nil. Of course if you have no signal strength you cannot have any connectivity. Or, in human conversation terms: Signal strength: can I hear you ? Connectivity: can I understand you ? This was clear to me when I wrote it -- hope it is to you when you read it !
