Shell: ping, nslookup, port, traceroute, ifconfig and arp (#90)
Network troubleshooting from the device itself, in the Shell and over both consoles. ping, nslookup, port and traceroute each run on a task of their own and print as they go, to the console that asked; one at a time, and `cancel` stops it. ifconfig and arp answer at once: the interfaces (Wi-Fi and the VPN), which is the default route, the DNS servers, the neighbours. nslookup asks a DNS server itself, so it can say which server answered and in how long, and ask another. A sized ping finds what a tunnel really carries. With a how-to, "When the network doesn't work", and the rest of the docs. tls, ntp and netstat from the issue's list are not in this.

## The network doesn't work: how do I find out why?

From the device itself, in the Shell: `ifconfig`, `ping`, `nslookup`, `port` and `traceroute`. [When the network doesn't work](/howto/network-check/) puts them in order.

For the radio, GNSS position, Wi-Fi tools, IRC chat and Gemini browsing, no. For anything that is *kept*, yes: notes, IRC logs, Wi-Fi scan logs, GNSS Tracks, LoRa captures, saved Gemini pages and update files. See [Find your files on the SD card](/howto/sd-files/).
