Ping Results

Figure 2.11 Diags Tab

Use the Diags tab as a troubleshooting tool. The functions are as follows:

• (Re)Connect: Enables/Disables the radio, applies/reapplies current config and tries to associate and authenticate to the wireless LAN, logging all activity in the output area at bottom of the dialog box.

• Release/Renew : Obtains a new IP address through DHCP and logs all activity in the output area.

• Start Ping : Starts a continuous ping to the address in the text box next to this button. This is a toggle button so when you tap on it, it changes to Stop

Ping . Closing this window or tapping on another button also stops the ping.

• Diagnostics: Attempts to connect or reconnect to an AP, and provides a more detailed dump of data than if you used (Re)connect . The dump includes the radio state, config settings, global settings and BSSID list of APs. The SCU is saved to a file called _sdc_diag.txt

in the Windows directory.
