AutoTest automatically checks the health of your network by
examining Air Quality for utilization and interference and
Network Quality for the SSIDs that have been configured for
AutoTest. See "AutoTest Settings," page 101.
When AutoTest runs, the test result fields turn green, red, or
yellow to indicate the status or rating of the result. For
example, in Figure 18, the 802.11 Utilization test has passed,
the Non 802.11 Utilization and Co-Channel Interference has
received a warning, and Adjacent Channel Interference has
failed.
These ratings are controlled by the Thresholds configured in
the AirCheck G2's Settings > Thresholds.
See "Adjusting the Test Thresholds," page 54.
To run an AutoTest, touch the AutoTest field on the Home
Screen. The AutoTest results screen opens and results are
displayed as each test finishes.
