‡ This table describes the scope of e-Diagtools tests. Diagtools tests may vary slightly.
* The diagnostic test is more thorough if you use a loop-back connector.
** The test checks only the internal hardware up to the mini-PCI card, and does not check the mini-
PCI panel or any external cabling.
†
Use an appropriate external device to exercise the port. See the help text for the tests in the menu.
