Socket Wi-Fi Companion is an intuitive and graphical utility that displays your connection properties at a glance. There’s even a Power Save utility, so you can adjust the power settings when using battery power.

The Trace Route tool traces a packet from the Pocket PC to an Internet host, showing each hop and how long it takes to reach the destination. This helps you locate delays if performance seems slow.
