I am having trouble performing TX testing on the MT8860B even though RX testing works fine. Is there a setting I have to change to allow the TX testing to occur?
TX testing can be done in one of two ways. It can either be done as a continuous TX test or as a packet loopback TX test. The continuous TX test requires putting the DUT into a transmit state. This often requires specific software from the DUT manufacturer. Contact the manufacturer to get this software. Packet loopback testing does not require any special software. It only requires that you configure the DUT IP address properly. That makes this the preferable test type in most cases. To configure packet loopback testing, click the Configure Loopback button. If the device you are testing is an access point, you will need to know the address of the access point so you can type that address into the DUT IP Addr: field. Often this address is 192.168.1.1, but your address may differ. Otherwise, if the DUT is connected to the same computer you are running LanLook on, clicking List IP Addresses... can be helpful. After doing so, select the DUT from the list. If the DUT is not in this list, or if the DUT is connected to another computer, use the windows command ipconfig to find the IP address that has been assigned to the DUT and type that value into the DUT IP Addr.: field. Press Auto Set Base IP Addr. then press OK. At this point, the test configuration is properly set up for packet loopback TX testing, and you should be able to run the test properly.
