autoswitch wifi signal support RSSI dBm

The Windows wifi signal bar is not accurate at all, i would suggest add RSSI dBm signal detection to make these condition more useful

Re: autoswitch wifi signal support RSSI dBm

Windows calculates the signal strength based on the RSSI value. So in the end it doesn't really make any difference.

wlanSignalQuality:
A percentage value that represents the signal quality of the network. WLAN_SIGNAL_QUALITY is of type ULONG. This member contains a value between 0 and 100. A value of 0 implies an actual RSSI signal strength of -100 dbm. A value of 100 implies an actual RSSI signal strength of -50 dbm. You can calculate the RSSI signal strength value for wlanSignalQuality values between 1 and 99 using linear interpolation.
