Using the Monitor window
The Monitor window is a small window displaying information on the current
network connection. The following information is available in the Monitor
window: connection type, amount of sent and received data, duration of the
connection, signal strength or WLAN connection quality, and data flow.
To open the Monitor window, right-click the Nokia D211 icon on the taskbar and
select
Monitor window. If the taskbar icon is not visible, see page 33 for more
information. If you want the Monitor window to open automatically each time the
radio card is inserted, go to the
Settings page, General tab. Select the Open
Monitor window automatically option.
The Monitor window displays both the amount of sent and received data, and the
duration of the active connection. The data counter unit is a kilobyte. When the
data counter is displayed, click on it and the connection timer is displayed instead.
Note: The actual invoice for calls and services from your service provider may
vary, depending upon network features, rounding-off for billing, taxes and
so forth.
The signal strength indicator shows the strength and quality of the radio signal
between the radio card and a GSM base station at your current location. In WLAN,
the indicator shows the quality of the radio signal between a radio card and a
WLAN access point. Remember that the strength of the radio signal is affected by
distance and obstacles. The data flow indicator shows the relative speed at which
data is transferred.
