    How to display signal strength in dBM?

    Is there a way to replace the "signal bars" in the top right of my screen with the actual signal strength in dBm? I know I can see the strength in dBm in settings but I would like to know if there is a way to quickly see it.

    Should I upgrade from the original chromecast to the new one?

    I see mine is single band. Is it worth upgrading to a multiband router to speed up my chromecast? Although with an upgraded router my Motorola surfboard modem or basic cox internet connection may be the bottle neck.

    Should I upgrade from the original chromecast to the new one?

    Ok, newb question here, how do I know if I have a 5ghz network? Is that determined by my ISP package, or by my modem/router?

    Should I upgrade from the original chromecast to the new one?

    Chromecast is slow to connect to TV with lollipop

    What do you mean it could be the server I'm streaming from? Also is it possible that my Nexus has slowed down from something running in the background, or some other thing on my device itself?

    Chromecast is slow to connect to TV with lollipop

    my nexus 7 isnt too slow, but its definitely worse when i use it to cast. Even as its playing the "loading dots" will still be displayed. I'm not sure what wifi speeds I usually have, I dont really know about that kind of thing. How can I check and how do I know what it should be?

    Chromecast is slow to connect to TV with lollipop

    I use my nexus 7 tablet to cast videos to my television. I remember when I first got my chromecast I was surprised at how quick it was to connect and play video.
