Wi-Fi AutoTest Profiles
A Wi-Fi Profile runs a series of tests by connecting to a selected wireless network.
Like the main AutoTest screen, Wi-Fi Profile tests are summarized on cards. Tap a card to view individual test screens.
Each test icon (except the AP) displays green, yellow, or red to indicate the status (or grade) of the completed test step: Success/Warning/Fail. The AP Test card shows the name and SSID of the connected AP. The AP test is not graded, so the icon stays black.
Wi-Fi Profiles do not run automatically. The factory default Wi-Fi Profile cannot run until you have configured an SSID with the proper credentials. (By default, AutoTest starts in Wi-Fi passive scanning mode if you do not have a profile set up.)
See the Wi-Fi Profile Settings topic for instructions.
