EZ Wi-Fi App

The EZ Wi-Fi application provides a simplified workflow for testing a wireless network connection. When you tap START, the tester connects to the selected SSID and performs standard AutoTest Wi-Fi Profile test steps in the background, while EZ Wi-Fi presents the results in a condensed format.

EZ Wi-Fi consolidates key Wi-Fi metrics such as signal strength, channel, retries, and TX rates. Link Data graphs continue to update in real time while the connection remains active.

Viewing EZ Wi-Fi Results

Touch START to initiate a test.

The example below shows a wireless connection test with an active link.

As the test runs, each step appears as a status icon:

Green — Successful result

Yellow — Warning condition

Red — Failure detected

You can tap any icon to open the detailed results for that component: Link, Channel, AP, DHCP, DNS, Gateway, and test targets.

Configuring EZ Wi-Fi Profile Settings

To quickly choose an SSID and enter the Password or other credentials required to connect, tap the SSID link at the top of the EZ Wi-Fi screen.

EZ Wi-Fi uses the configuration from the current EZ Wi-Fi Profile, including Wi-Fi Connection settings and test targets. Like other Wi-Fi profiles, the EZ Wi-Fi Profile is named after the SSID once one is selected.

If an AutoTest profile with the same SSID already exists when you change the SSID in EZ Wi-Fi, the associated connection settings (such as the password) are automatically applied. In this case, no additional configuration is required.

The EZ Wi-Fi connection settings are simplified. Settings that are not shown default to commonly used values or are inherited from an existing AutoTest profile. To view or modify advanced Wi-Fi settings, open the profile in the AutoTest app.

You can configure additional settings, add test targets, and enter a custom name from the profile's settings in the AutoTest app. Any added test targets will appear as new icons in the EZ Wi-Fi summary view.

Adjusting EZ Wi-Fi Profile Settings in AutoTest

On the EZ Wi-Fi screen, tap the icon to open the EZ Wi-Fi Profile results screen in the AutoTest app.
On the AutoTest screen for the EZ Wi-Fi Profile, touch the settings icons at the top.
On the EZ Wi-Fi Profile settings screen, configure as needed.

The settings you configure on the EZ Wi-Fi Profile settings screen (above) will be used to run this profile from either AutoTest or EZ Wi-Fi.

For information on Wi-Fi Profile settings, see Wi-Fi AutoTest Profiles

EZ Wi-Fi Profile Name

As in AutoTest, by default, Wi-Fi Profiles take the name of the selected SSID. You may give the EZ Wi-Fi Profile a custom name that will display instead of the SSID. The same profile will continue to be the designated EZ profile, regardless of the name. Additionally, the EZ profiles are easily identified in AutoTest Settings.

Viewing and Managing All Profiles

To view and manage all of your AutoTest profiles, navigate to the AutoTest Settings screen from the navigation drawer in the AutoTest app.

The AutoTest Settings screen indicates which profile(s) are the EZ profiles.

NOTE: If you have a Wi-Fi only tester (AirCheck, CyberScope Air), you will only see Wi-Fi Profiles here.

Touch any of the profile names to open and customize their individual settings. See Managing AutoTest Profiles and Profile Groups for the full topic on this screen and its functionality.

You cannot select a different profile to use as the EZ profile, but you can copy all settings from a different profile into the EZ profile.

Copying Profile Settings to the EZ Profile

To copy the configuration from a different Wi-Fi profile to the EZ profile, go to the main AutoTest Settings screen from the navigation drawer in the AutoTest app.

On the AutoTest Settings screen, tap the overflow icon for the profile you want copied, and select Copy to EZ Wi-Fi Profile.

All configuration settings will be applied to the EZ Wi-Fi Profile.
