RouteFinder Monitor

If you are having problems, the RouteFinder Monitor can be a valuable tool to assist in troubleshooting. Additional troubleshooting information is available through the on-line help screens. Refer to Chapter 6 for more information about using the RouteFinder monitor.

PING

Ping is an acronym for Packet Internet Groper. The PING utility is used as a diagnostic tool to determine if a communication path exists between two devices on the network. The utility sends a packet to the specified address and then waits for a reply. PING is used primarily to troubleshoot Internet connections, but it can be used to test the connection between any devices using the TCP/IP protocol.

WINIPCFG and IPCONFIG

There are two tools which are helpful in finding a computer’s IP configuration, MAC address and default gateway.

WINIPCFG (for Windows 95/98)

1.Select Start Run and type winipcfg.

2.The IP address, default gateway (the RF802EW IP address), and the MAC (adapter address) display.

IPCONFIG (for Window NT/2000)

1.From a DOS Prompt, type IPCONFIG and press Enter.

2.The IP address, default gateway (the RF802EW IP address), and the MAC (adapter address) display.
