iwlist scan
iwconfig wlan0
iwconfig wlan0 | grep -i --color quality
watch -n 1 cat /proc/net/wireless
cat /proc/net/wireless

Some times, when the signal is poor from my note ssh is very slow as you said.
It start (first +-3 minutes) wifi start as max, with pass time the
sign get low. It is normal.
