ESP32 WROOM 32 WiFi signal strength - Flowcode V9

Not sure I am correct, but when I run a WiFi Scan then do a ReadSignalStrengthFromScan, I get a number that is way off. If I subtract this number from 256, I get a very close reading to what my Android shows. For example, if I place an AP right beside the ESP32, I get a signal strength of 249. When I subtract this value from 256 it shows 7db (- 7db but the ReadSignalStrengthFromScan does not return negative numbers so you have to add the '-' sign)

So, it is working very well if I subtract from 256. Am I missing something?

Hello

Many thanks for letting us know could be we are just returning what the espressif library provides. I'll investigate this for you and see if we can return a better value.

Hopefully should be all fixed for you now via a component update.
