This section describes how to perform the wireless LAN transmitting-receiving test with the test
program. (Atheros 11b/g)
NOTE:
Use another computer (with Atheros 11b/g) that can communicate by the
wireless LAN as a responder machine to perform this test.
When conducting this test, make sure that any wireless network device using 2.4GHz band
other than IEEE 802.11b, such as Bluetooth, is not used nearby.
In this test, the following items are tested:
* Test PC side
(1)
SKU (destination code) check
(2)
Mac Address check
(3)
Communication test (11a mode) (only for 11a/b/g card)
(4)
Communication test (11g mode)
(5)
Communication test (11b mode)
This program conducts the above test items continuously and displays results for each item during
the test. However, only the last result for the whole test shall be checked. (The message "OK" or
"NG" is displayed.)
When an "NG" item is detected during the test, the message "NG" is displayed on the screen and
