1) Choose Ping or Traceroute as the diagnostic tool to test the connectivity.

Ping is used to test the connectivity between the router and the tested host, and measure the

round-trip time. Traceroute is used to display the route (path) your router has passed to reach the

tested host, and measure transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol network.

2) Input the IP address or domain name of the tested host.

4. Click Start to begin the diagnostics.
