airplane mode android

When i first got my android,once i put my phone in airplane mode then i forgot. Took me so long to figure out whats wrong with the phone. Talk about embarasing.

network ip ping sniffer software

Found a tutorial and sample code and improved on it. I call it "node it all"
current version: V 0.1
It asks for an Ip network section then searches for hosts in the network it defaults to 192.168.0.xxx  network
I made a console aplication to just sniff ips + network names
download link
node it all

Future improvements a windows app that can save availability and remember nodes and notify if a link that is always on if its down

know which data point

PROBLEM :On a live system and you want to check out a single point with minimal interaption. If you can‘t tell which data point is which on a network cabinet .

SOLUTION: fastest way is to have someone stand near the switch .Unplug the patch cord while the machine is turned on .Do that 3 or 4 times and the other person checks which point goes on and off on the switch. And you know which port to work on.
