Ping

The Ping tool is used to check the preliminary link quality 
and packet latency estimation between two network 
devices using ICMP packets.

Network Ping

Select Destination IP 

A remote system IP can be selected 

from the list which is generated automatically or can be 
specified manually.

Packet Count 

Enter the number of packets to send for 

the ping test.

Packet Size 

The size of the ICMP packets can be specified 

in this field. 

Start 

The test is started using this button.

Packet loss statistics and latency time evaluation is 
provided after the test is completed.

Traceroute

The TraceRoute tool allows tracing the hops from the 
AirRouter to a selected outgoing IP address. It should be 
used for finding the route taken by ICMP packets across 
the network to the Destination host.

Destination Host 

Enter the IP address of the destination 

host to which you want to find the route. 

Resolve IP Addresses 

Resolution of the IP addresses 

(symbolically rather than numerically) can be enabled by 
selecting this option.

Start 

The test is started using this button.

Speed Test

This utility allows you to test the connection speed 
between two UBNT devices that are using firmware 
version 5.2 or above. It should be used for a preliminary 
throughput estimation between two network devices.

Select Destination IP 

A remote system IP can be selected 

from the list, which is generated automatically (Select 
destination IP) or may be specified manually.
Remote system access credentials (administrator 
username - User and Password) should be provided for 
the communication between two AirOS powered devices. 
This is required in order to establish the TCP/IP based 
throughput test.

Remote WEB port 

The remote Web port the AirOS 

powered device should be specified in order to establish 
TCP/IP based throughput test (i.e. 443 port should be 
specified if HTTPS is enabled in the remote system). The 
ICMP throughput measurement routine will be initiated if 
the WEB port of the remote system is incorrect.

Show Advanced Options 

Enables additional Speed Test 

utility options. There are 3 options available for the traffic 
direction while estimating the throughput maximum:

Direction 

There are three directions to choose from:

• 

Duplex 

Estimates the incoming (Rx) and the outgoing 

(Tx) throughput at the same time.

• 

Receive 

Estimates the incoming (Rx) throughput.

• 

Transmit 

Estimates the outgoing (Tx) throughput.

Test Results 

Displays three result categories: 

• 

Rx 

Displays the estimated incoming throughput.

• 

Tx 

Displays the estimated out-coming throughput.

• 

Total 

Displays the aggregated throughput.

AirView

AirView is a Spectrum Analyzer allowing you to see the 
crowdedness of the radio spectrum. You need to run this 
tool on a system connected to the AirRouter via Ethernet. 
All wireless connections will be disconnected from the 
AirRouter.

Note:

  Launching AirView will terminate all 

wireless connections on the device.
