The Get Modem Radio Signal Status
action returns the state of the cellular connection and the
strength of the cellular connection.
A very low signal can result in the cellular modem being unable to connect to the provider's network or to being unable to send and receive data.
The Get Modem Radio Signal Status action returns both the number of bars and the RSSI signal strengths.
The RSSI is the Received Signal Strength Indication. This is the power level received by the antenna. The greater the RSSI, the stronger the signal.
