Smartphone Thoughts: Windows Mobile Network Analyzer PowerToy

"Network Analyzer for Windows Mobile runs network utilities, for example ping and ipconfig, on a Windows Mobile powered device. Network Analyzer for Windows Mobile facilitates the troubleshooting of network connectivity issues. You can extend the harness. You can add user-defined tests (DLLs) to the list of tests to be executed. An xml input file defines the list of tests to execute. You can use Network Analyzer to send information about network traffic to a .cap file. You can then view the .cap file with the Network Monitor tool or the Ethereal tool. See the readme file below for more information."

Here's a handy utility curtsey of Microsoft. Although, to make the best use of this, you’ll want to have a device that supports WiFi. It’s a free download for anyone that’s interested. However, as with any PowerToy, this is a unsupported Microsoft product. And a little extra word of caution, when I installed this on my device I had nothing but problems running it. So it might not be Windows Mobile 6 compatible, or maybe it just doesn't like the Vox. I'm not sure. Be careful if you're going to try it out. Let us know if you have more luck than I did.
