A domestic appliance or method of commissioning may include establishing a wireless connection between a previously commissioned appliance and an uncommissioned appliance over a secondary connection channel. A method may also include transmitting a signal-strength request to the uncommissioned appliance from the previously commissioned appliance. The method may further include receiving signal-strength data corresponding to a local wireless network from the uncommissioned appliance. The method may still further include evaluating the signal-strength data and initiating a user alert from the previously commissioned appliance based on the evaluated signal-strength data.
