A method for presenting network connectivity data, the method comprising:
- testing a plurality of communications components and communications links of a network, wherein each of the plurality of components and communications links is communicatively coupled to a computing device, where the plurality of communications components and communications links is configured to provide the computing device access to a ground network;
- determining operational capability of each of the plurality of components and communications links;
- and
- presenting an indication of the operational capability for each of the plurality of components and communications links based upon results of the testing.
A program product comprising a non-transitory processor-readable medium on which program instructions are embodied, wherein the program instructions are operable to:
- test a plurality of communications components and communications links of a network, wherein each of the plurality of components and communications links is communicatively coupled to a computing device, and wherein the plurality of communications components and communications links is configured to provide the computing device access to a ground network;
- determine operational capability of each of the plurality of components and communications links;
- and
- present an indication of the operational capability for each of the plurality of components and communications links based upon results of the testing.
A computing device, comprising:
- a processing system comprising a memory coupled to a processor;
- at least one input/output device coupled to the processing system;
- communications circuitry coupled to the processing system;
- and
- wherein the memory comprises an application comprising program instructions configured to be executed by the processor to:
- test a plurality of communications components and communications links of a network, wherein each of the plurality of components and communications links is communicatively coupled to a computing device, and wherein the plurality of communications components and communications links is configured to provide the computing device access to a ground network;
- determine operational capability of each of the plurality of components and communications links;
- and
- present an indication of the operational capability for each of the plurality of components and communications links based upon results of the testing.
