Issue with WifiManager.calculateSignalLevel(RSSI, 5)

Question

I am trying to use the Wifimanager to calculate the Signal Level of the access points found during a scan.

I am using the following method:

WifiManager.calcu

Answer 1

It seems that calculateSignalLevel is implemented this way:

public static int calculateSignalLevel(int rssi, int numLevels) {
  if (rssi <= MIN_RSSI) {
      return 0;
  } else if (rssi >= MAX_RSSI) {
      return numLevels - 1;
  } else {
      int partitionSize = (MAX_RSSI - MIN_RSSI) / (numLevels - 1);
      return (rssi - MIN_RSSI) / partitionSize;
  }
}

Maybe this code snippet can explain your problem. Also note:
