    It would depend what model of AP you use. On the 175 if you look at the signal indicator it will only show 1 bar until you establish a link and in the console will show a reboot occurred because it couldn't establish a mesh link after 15 minutes. On any other AP you could check the console of the AP or look to see on the controller if the mesh point shows up or down.

    It depends on the platform. For AOS, things like 'show ap mesh topology' and 'show ap mesh neighbors ap-name <ap to look from>'. For MeshOS, things like 'show mesh neighbors' are a good place to start. 

     

    Also having data like AP model, antennas uses, distances, clear line of sight and fresnel zone clearance, etc are all also required info if you are looking for more info.
