The network monitoring feature enables your Flightcell DZMx to log and transmit metrics on your network connectivity and speeds of data transmission.

This tool is purely used for fault finding and network optimization in regards to using cellular data through your DZMx and its LAN and Wi-Fi capabilities. 


You may be requested by the Flightcell Support team to disable or enable this feature, to assist with any optimizations or network troubleshooting. To access and adjust this feature, please follow the instructions below.


Use DZMx Connect to Setup
