I haven't spent a lot of time on the interface yet, but what I've seen is a 
good first step. % Frame Utilization. Okay, now within that say 73% 
utilization, how much is in, how much is out, how much is MCS0 how much is 
MCS15, how much is spent retransmitting things you already sent, etc.? 

Basically give me the tools to determine why the system isn't performing as 
expected instead of just me saying, "This radio sucks."

ePMP has a lot of what you’re asking for, 320 line had some too.

I want to see utilization or duty cycle meters. Tell me how busy the AP is so I 
know how much more can fit... and break down into different categories why it's 
busy. TX, Rx, retransmit, overhead, MCS 15, MCS 0, which stations are using 
what percent, etc. 

I'd say that knowing how busy the radio is is more important than knowing how 
many bits are flowing through it.
