& ?

signal is not shown in % but in dB where smaller number is better. ie signal "-56" is better than signal "-70" (which is pretty bad).

Try different channel or freq. Some channels have more noise than other.

You should hold it untill the router beeps.
Sotimes i do it twice just to be certian.

I cant remember if the routerboard beeps when you power it on. But you sjould wait untill the routerboard has booted up. It usualy takes 30 seconds depending on the rules.

try something else such as a coin or wire..

Maybe you should return it as it might be faulty
