    New Central is giving me an Insight on a Coverage Hole.  I'm trying to understand what it see's that makes it say that.  So, it says the AP named GF-Pool-NE has Low Uplink SNR:

    If I click on that for more detail:

    Is that saying that it had a low SNR that it heard 50 clients with a low SNR.  Below is a snippit of the map of that portion of the building.  Being that GF-Pool-NE is on the outside wall of the building, could it be that these 50 clients with low SNR were outside the building on the sidewalk or parking lot?.  If they are I wouldn't expect them to have a strong signal, we haven't made any effort to provide outdoor wireless around this building.

    Does this mean the advice of this Insight is meaningless any time it identifies a coverage hole with an AP on the outside edge of a building?  Probably also if it identified a hole for any outdoor AP?
