Administration Guide Field Signal Level Connection Data Rate Status Network Type Network Channel Pairwise Cipher Group Cipher Gateway Address DHCP Primary DNS Secondary DNS DNS Suffix Subnet Mask Troubleshooting: Connections to the Wi-Fi network Description The field specifies the current signal strength of the BlackBerry device. The value is based on the signal percentage level, from none to excellent. This field specifies the data rate in Mbps. IEEE® 802.11b™has a data rate of 11 Mbps, and IEEE® 802.11a™ and IEEE® 802.11g™ have a data rate of 54 Mbps. This field provides a descriptive status message, such as "Status acquired". It also specifies warnings and errors that a user encountered when the user tried to open a connection to an access point. This field specifies whether the wireless connection type is IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, or IEEE 802.11g. This field specifies the IEEE 802.11 channel that the access point uses. This field specifies information about how the access point manages encryption keys for a user account on the network. You can configure an access point to support multiple pairwise ciphers. You can use a pairwise cipher with a group cipher. This field specifies information about how the access point manages encryption keys for all user accounts on the network or locally. You can use a pairwise cipher with a group cipher. The group ciphers have one of the following values: • None • WEP 40 • WEP 104 • TKIP • AES-CCMP An access point that you configure to support multiple pairwise ciphers is only as strong as the weakest pairwise cipher. This field specifies the IP address of the gateway that routes any packets that the gateway sends outside the local network. In an enterprise Wi-Fi network, this field specifies the IP address of the organization's LAN gateway. In a personal Wi-Fi network, this field specifies the internal IP address of the router for the home network. This field specifies the status of the DHCP connection to the BlackBerry device. When a check mark displays, DHCP is complete. This field specifies the address of an optional computer that translates host names into IP addresses. This field specifies the address of an optional computer that translates host names into IP addresses. The BlackBerry device can use the secondary DNS server if the primary DNS is not available. This field specifies the domain name suffix, such as .com or .org. This field specifies information about the subnet base for the IP address tha the access point assigned to the BlackBerry device. 410

Field

Description

Signal Level

The field specifies the current signal strength of the BlackBerry device. The value is

based on the signal percentage level, from none to excellent.

Connection Data Rate

This field specifies the data rate in Mbps. IEEE® 802.11b™ has a data rate of 11 Mbps,

and IEEE® 802.11a™ and IEEE® 802.11g™ have a data rate of 54 Mbps.

Status

This field provides a descriptive status message, such as "Status acquired". It also

specifies warnings and errors that a user encountered when the user tried to open

a connection to an access point.

Network Type

This field specifies whether the wireless connection type is IEEE 802.11a, IEEE

802.11b, or IEEE 802.11g.

Network Channel

This field specifies the IEEE 802.11 channel that the access point uses.

Pairwise Cipher

This field specifies information about how the access point manages encryption

keys for a user account on the network. You can configure an access point to support

multiple pairwise ciphers. You can use a pairwise cipher with a group cipher.

Group Cipher

This field specifies information about how the access point manages encryption

keys for all user accounts on the network or locally. You can use a pairwise cipher

with a group cipher.

The group ciphers have one of the following values:

•

None

•

WEP 40

•

WEP 104

•

TKIP

•

AES-CCMP

An access point that you configure to support multiple pairwise ciphers is only as

strong as the weakest pairwise cipher.

Gateway Address

This field specifies the IP address of the gateway that routes any packets that the

gateway sends outside the local network. In an enterprise Wi-Fi network, this field

specifies the IP address of the organization’s LAN gateway. In a personal Wi-Fi

network, this field specifies the internal IP address of the router for the home

network.

DHCP

This field specifies the status of the DHCP connection to the BlackBerry device. When

a check mark displays, DHCP is complete.

Primary DNS

This field specifies the address of an optional computer that translates host names

into IP addresses.

Secondary DNS

This field specifies the address of an optional computer that translates host names

into IP addresses. The BlackBerry device can use the secondary DNS server if the

primary DNS is not available.

DNS Suffix

This field specifies the domain name suffix, such as .com or .org.

Subnet Mask

This field specifies information about the subnet base for the IP address tha the

access point assigned to the BlackBerry device.
