ICMP Ping
The ICMP Ping screen allows testing of a connection at the network layer (part of the IP protocol) between the
device and any other device on the network. Ping tests only stop when Stop Test is selected, the Wireless
Diagnostics application is closed or if the device switches between infrastructure and ad-hoc modes.
To open the ICMP Ping screen, select ICMP Ping in the Wireless Diagnostics screen.
