Answer from AI

To diagnose and manage network connections on Android, the following tools and utilities are commonly used:

  • adb (Android Debug Bridge) — allows executing commands on the device, e.g., adb shell ifconfig or adb shell ip addr to view network interfaces.
  • ping — checks host availability.
  • traceroute — traces the route to a server.
  • netstat — views active network connections and ports.
  • logcat — views system logs, including network events.
  • Wi-Fi Analyzer and other third-party apps — for analyzing Wi-Fi networks.
  • Settings > Network & Internet — built-in interface for managing connections.

Example command to check IP address:

adb shell ip addr show wlan0

These tools help identify network issues, check connection status, and manage network settings.
