-# Access point collector
-
-The `ap` collector visualizes data related to access points.
-
-## Example Netdata charts

-
-## How it works
-
-It does the following:
-
-1. Runs `iw dev` searching for interfaces that have `type AP`.
-
- From the same output it collects the SSIDs each AP supports by looking for lines `ssid NAME`.
-
- Example:
-
-```sh
-# iw dev
-phy#0
- Interface wlan0
- ifindex 3
- wdev 0x1
- addr 7c:dd:90:77:34:2a
- ssid TSAOUSIS
- type AP
- channel 7 (2442 MHz), width: 20 MHz, center1: 2442 MHz
-```
-
-2. For each interface found, it runs `iw INTERFACE station dump`.
-
- From the output is collects:
-
- - rx/tx bytes
- - rx/tx packets
- - tx retries
- - tx failed
- - signal strength
- - rx/tx bitrate
- - expected throughput
-
- Example:
-
-```sh
-# iw wlan0 station dump
-Station 40:b8:37:5a:ed:5e (on wlan0)
- inactive time: 910 ms
- rx bytes: 15588897
- rx packets: 127772
- tx bytes: 52257763
- tx packets: 95802
- tx retries: 2162
- tx failed: 28
- signal: -43 dBm
- signal avg: -43 dBm
- tx bitrate: 65.0 MBit/s MCS 7
- rx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s
- expected throughput: 32.125Mbps
- authorized: yes
- authenticated: yes
- preamble: long
- WMM/WME: yes
- MFP: no
- TDLS peer: no
-```
-
-3. For each interface found, it creates 6 charts:
-
- - Number of Connected clients
- - Bandwidth for all clients
- - Packets for all clients
- - Transmit Issues for all clients
- - Average Signal among all clients
- - Average Bitrate (including average expected throughput) among all clients
-
-## Configuration
-
-If using [our official native DEB/RPM packages](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/packaging/installer/methods/packages.md), make sure `netdata-plugin-chartsd` is installed.
-
-Edit the `charts.d/ap.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
-directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
-
-```bash
-cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
-sudo ./edit-config charts.d/ap.conf
-```
-
-You can only set `ap_update_every=NUMBER` to change the data collection frequency.
-
-## Auto-detection
-
-The plugin is able to auto-detect if you are running access points on your linux box.
