1. A method comprising:

  • identifying multiple statistics for a first wireless connection and multiple statistics for a second wireless connection, the wireless connections forming a bi-directional communication path between two of multiple wireless nodes in a wireless network, the two wireless nodes communicating directly with each other via the first and second wireless connections forming the bi-directional communication path;

    for each statistic, identifying one of multiple ranges in which the statistic lies;

    identifying an overall quality associated with the bi-directional communication path between the two wireless nodes using at least one of;

    the statistics and the identified ranges in which the statistics lie; and

    generating a graphical display that includes a map graphically representing at least some of the wireless nodes in the wireless network and communication paths between the at least some of the wireless nodes, the graphical display also including controls for defining the multiple ranges for the statistics, the graphical display further including the overall quality of the communication path between the two wireless nodes.
