A Wireless LAN (WLAN) receiver with packet level Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is disclosed for receiving and converting an RF packet signal, conforming to the open standard IEEE 802.11, into recovered digital data. The receiver comprises a switchably coupled antenna, an analog signal processing circuitry for conditioning and selective frequency down-converting the RF signal into amplified, under a controllable analog gain G1A, video signals VSI and VSQ, an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) for converting VSI and VSQ into digital outputs IADC and QADC and an AGC subsystem for effecting an adjustment of G1A and for digitally scaling, under a controllable digital gain G2D, the digital outputs LADC and QADC before final digital data recovery. The AGC subsystem further comprises a Calibration and Gain Setting firmware for measuring the preambles of each RF packet and responsively adjusting both G1A and G2D.
