Signal strenght can be obtained from the API, see the API Reference link
in linuxwimax.org/Download from structure

WIMAX_API_CONNECTED_NSP_INFO

which can be obtained by calling GetConnectedNSP().

There is no current way to query the device for per-packet transmission
delay/retry statistics. You could query these at the TCP level maybe.

This setting is not available.
