The quality of an IEEE link can be estimated on the basis of the Link Quality Indication LQI which is a parameter offered by the IEEE physical layer. The LQI has been recommended by organizations such as the ZigBee Alliance and the IETF as an input to routing metrics for IEEE multihop networks. As these networks evolve one-to-one communications gain relevance in many application areas. In this paper we present an in-depth experimental study on the impact of LQI-based routing metrics on the performance of a one-to-one routing protocol for IEEE multihop networks. We conducted our experiments in a 60-node testbed. Experiments show the spectrum of performance results that using or not the LQI may yield. Results also highlight the importance of the additive or multiplicative nature of
