This values defines the minimum signal strength of WLAN clients which the access point will accept, even if a matching SSID or a wildcard SSID is provided. The access point will silently discard all probe requests below this threshold.
You can use this option to prevent large numbers of potential WLAN clients, e.g. mobile handsets, to decrease the WLAN performance with probe requests looking for available WLAN networks.
The strength threshold is specified in percent, which can be translated into an SNR: a threshold of 100 percent means a minimum SNR of 64 dBm, 50 percent means 32 dBm and so on.

Special values: '0' deactivates the minimum signal strenght, the access point will answer all requests.
