Take a look at Cirond's PocketWinC software, it will give you all of that...and more. You can get it at pocketgear.com or handango.com....great product...BUT, the X30 has a problem with its Wi-Fi signal driver (according to Cirond)!!!! I also want ACCURATE signal strength statistics, but the X30 won't send the right info....I tried to get Dell to help me fix the problem, but its like pulling teeth. I would suggest you verify that your device truly has the same problem (try putting your x30 up close, within an inch or two, and then a few feet away, and notice if your signal strength information is accurate.....if not, you should report it to Dell..perhaps if enough x30 users report the problem, they will fix it.
