Since the iPaq I got has both bluetooth and wifi it is very useful in a networked environment and so the obvious requirement is a networking tool that can do the usual diagnostics work. I found a excellent freeware tool called vxUtil from Cambridge Computer Corporation.

Features:

  • DNS Audit
  • DNS Lookup
  • Finger
  • Get HTML
  • Network Interface Info like ifconfig or ipconfig
  • IP Subnet Calculator
  • Password Generator
  • Ping and Ping Sweeper
  • Port Scanner
  • Quote
  • Time Service client
  • Traceroute
  • whois

All round excellent tool one that I often use, view the extended entry to see screenshots of it in action.
