The WNU’s default screen is the “Current Status” tab. The “Current Status” tab displays the current Network Status and Available Networks.

Network Status

This window displays the connectivity status of the current network. It even displays connectivity between the computer and router, and router and Internet. In the event of a connectivity problem, this window can be used to determine the problem’s source (e.g. computer, router, or Internet/modem).

Available Networks

This window displays the available networks at the current location as well as their SSID, Signal Strength, Security Type, Channel, and Network Type.

Lost Wireless Connection

If the current wireless connection is lost, a window will pop up and the WNU will attempt to reconnect.
