9.2.1 Mobile network
The section [Cellular Diagnostics] provides information about the mobile network infrastructure used.
Monitoring signal strength and signal quality
You can use the diagnostic information when planning the installation of the device.
If the device is to be placed in a fixed installation and there are several possible locations to choose between, it is viable to monitor the signal strength and quality in the intended locations.
Viewing mobile network information
Cellular diagnostic information, such as Tower Cell ID, IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) and ICCID (Integrated Circuit Card ID), is useful when you are in contact with your mobile network operator.
To view the cellular diagnostic information:
Requirements:
√ Device has been started.
▶ Open the [Diagnostics] menu page.
▶ Navigate to the [Cellular Diagnostics] area.
▷ The menu page displays cellular diagnostic information.
9.2.2 Historic diagnostics
In the [Historic Diagnostics] section, you can overview the connection and signal strength over time in a diagram.
To display the historic diagnostics:
Requirements:
√ Device has been started.
▶ Open the [Diagnostics] menu page.
▶ In the drop-down menu, select [Overview].
▷ The diagram shows an overview of the available information.
▶ In the drop-down menu, select [Detailed].
▷ The diagram shows a detailed view of the available information.
9.2.3 Network diagnostics
[Network Diagnostics] offers options for network diagnosis.

If the device is installed on a private cellular network, the diagnostic methods are limited according to the restrictions of the private network.

The methods are useful when evaluating the connection on the cellular network.
▶ Complete the evaluation by performing tests with the connected device on the LAN network.

To get reliable network diagnostics results, large amounts of data are required.
▶ Before running the Wget method, check the SIM card data rate and allowance.
Available methods:
| Method | Description |
| [Ping] | Ping sends packets to the specified address and then waits for the response. Some devices do not expect longer round trip time, introduced by cellular network connection. Use ping to measure the round trip time. Ideally, measure towards the host that your device connects to, or another host at a similar distance. The host must be configured to respond to these types of requests. If errors exist, ping reports the errors. Ping can also show packet loss. If the host's IP address is known, start by pinging the host's IP address and then the host's DNS name. The DNS name is dependent on the DNS lookup. To verify that the device is connected to the internet, you can send a ping to a host or an IP number capable of returning ICMP echo responses, such as Google Public DNS. In the [Ziel] field, enter the IP address (IPv4) 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4. |
| [Nslookup] | Nslookup is used to query internet domain name servers. When Nslookup is run, the IP address of the DNS server and the targeted host IP address are shown. The DNS server is usually specified by the network operator. |
| [Wget] | Retrieve files using http. The retrieval can help you evaluate the real download capacity of the connection. The retrieved file is not saved to the device. Wget can be used to evaluate performance. The reply message shows the elapsed time between the request being sent to the target and the response being returned. |
To perform a network diagnosis:
Requirements:
√ Device has been started.
▶ Open the [Diagnostics] menu page.
▶ In the [Method] drop-down menu, select the desired method.
▶ Enter a [Target].
▶ Click [Start] to start the diagnosis.
▷ The diagnosis is performed using the selected method.
Example 1: Ping response message from address 8.8.8.8

Example 2: Nslookup response message from a website

Example 3: Wget response message from Speedtest website

Example 4: Wget response message from a website
