Wi-Fi signal strength measuring

Hello!

I have a Axim x51v and I know that little icon next to Bluetooh can measure my router's wifi signal strength. Also, I can go to WLAN utilities to check it out, but this last option looks very unstable to me, as it changes from normal to poor in a matter of a few steps.

So, is a simple software to measure (like in percentage) the signal strength of my wi-fi connection? I know that there are softwares like this for Windows XP, but since I don't have a laptop, the only wi-fi equipment I have to measure wi-fi signals is my axim. I'm considering buying a repeater and I'd like to know what would be the best place to install it.

Thanks,
Gustavo

Thanks, but none of them worked, didn't recognize my axim wifi card. But I found out Wifi Companion, and it's working just the way i wanted. Nice interface. Thanks!
