You're returning the SNMP OID rssi.0
Can you do an SNMPwalk from the command line, and retrieve this - it may be that the OID returns the value as a positive integer, or in a different form to how you expect? You may need to modify your Target line to do some sort of post-processing (for example, some devices return temperature as an integer in centidegrees Celsius, and so need to be divided by 10 (or even converted to Farenheit in certain unenlightened countries:)) You do not give the entire MRTG configuration stanza here for comparison, but I've seen it in a separate communication, so I can verify that you do not have the 'bits' option enabled (which would multiply by 8). Also, by default, MRTG assumes positive values. If using RRDTool as the backend, you need to manually tune the .rrd file to allow negative values; I think they might be rejected by native mode MRTG.
