Diagnostics

The Router provides a considerable amount of diagnostic functionality for testing connectivity on both the
Local Area Network (LAN) and the Wide Area Network (WAN). This includes LAN-side connections within
the home and WAN-side connections to the carrier, service provider and Internet. WAN-side testing may
