IP Info

This tab displays the device’s Internet Protocol (IP) information including the host name, domain, DNS server, IP address, etc.

In this tab, you can renew the IP address when the wireless network uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Tapping the Renew button forces the device to refresh its server-assigned IP address. The process may take several seconds while the system updates the IP information.

You can also try to detect if the wireless device is currently connected to the wireless network by tapping the Ping button.

Site Survey

This tab allows you to search for available wireless networks within your location. Tap the Re-scanbutton to scan all available wireless networks and display the results on the screen.

Each wireless network is preceded by an icon for easy identification. The network channel, RSSI, and BSSID are also displayed in columns.
