The *Neighbor Status* table will be refreshed automatically every minute as LQM evaluates your node's radio links on an ongoing basis. Links whose quality has improved may be activated, while links whose quality has worsened may be blocked. If an existing node link goes offline, it will age out of the list within about an hour. To refresh the neighbor list on demand you can click the **Refresh** button. If you want to return to the *Node Status* display, click the **Quit** button.
