Trace Route Window
Trace Route traces a packet from a computer to a host, showing how many hops the packet requires to reach
the host and how long each hop takes. The
Trace Route utility identifies where the longest delays occur.
The
Trace Route window allows testing a connection at the network layer (part of the IP protocol) between the
mobile computer and any place on the network.
To open the
Trace Route window, tap Trace Route in the Wireless Diagnostics window.

Trace Route Window
Enter an IP address or a DNS Name in the IP combo box, and tap
Start Test. The IP combo box should match
the information shown in the
ICMP Ping window’s IP combo box. When starting a test, the trace route attempts
to find all routers between the mobile computer and the destination. The Round Trip Time (RTT) between the
mobile computer and each router appears, along with the total test time. The total test time may be longer than
all RTTs added together because it does not only include time on the network.
Known APs Window
The Known APs window displays the APs in range using the same ESSID as the mobile computer. This
window is only available in
Infrastructure mode. To open the Known APs window, tap Known APs in the
Wireless Diagnostics window.
