Closing Words

WifiDiagnosticsView is a useful networking program for Windows users who want to analyze wireless connectivity issues. While it may be useful at highlighting potential issues, it does not point users in the right troubleshooting direction. How a discovered issue is resolved is beyond the scope of the application.

Still, running it may reveal the issue that is experienced. Research on the Internet may point you in the right direction of resolving it in the end.

Now You: do you connect your devices to wireless networks? Do you run into issues doing so sometimes or frequently?
