Version History of Smart Radio Monitor

3.3

February 21, 2016

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Added the following: •The IP address information in the ping tool. •New log and crash management. •Minor fixes

3.2

January 18, 2016

• Lan Scan: improved speed and functionality • Net Neutrality: more comprehensive FTP test • Minor fixes

3.1

November 24, 2015

Added the following network advanced tools: • Lan Scan: IPv4 network scanner that discovers all active devices on the network to which you are connected. • Ping: tests the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network and measures the round-trip time for messages sent from SRM to the specified host. • Traceroute: displays the route (path) and measures transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol (IP) network. • Scan Services: identifies the services running on a list of ports on the specified server.

•The speed test and the neutrality tests have been merged to provide a complete broadband test suite. This suite can be run once or many times (automatically) using the new ‘Continuous settings panel’. During the speed test, a new chart will also display the connectivity graphically. •The history test details have been enhanced in order to display all the results, including the speed charts. •The contributors’ chart can now be filtered by time so you can check your score for different time intervals: - since the first app has been deployed, - in the last year, - in the last month, - in the last week, - for the last 24 hours. •You can create an avatar and connect multiple devices to it. This allows you to sum up all the tests done on each of your devices to increase your contribution score and improve your position in the SRM official contributors’ ladder (http://srm.jrc.ec.europa.eu/Contributors). Using the same avatar credentials, you can also log in to the website (http://srm.jrc.ec.europa.eu/AvatarManagement) to download the data file for all your tests. Points are awarded to each installation of the application proportionally to the number of measurements and tests uploaded to our servers.

•Continuous Test: you can schedule the broad band test to be repeated every a certain period specified in the setting panel. You can also configure the maximum amount of traffic consumption and the type of connection to test (Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G). This new feature allows you to test your connection during your trips or continuously test it without any interaction with the application. •Net Neutrality: SRM checks if your provider guarantees you a free internet access, not discriminating or charging differentially by user, content, site, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or mode of communication. We are working hard to extend this feature with new net neutrality tests. Keep SmartRadioMonitor application constantly updated to check if you chose the correct provider ;) •Connection Details: this new panel shows you all the technical details regarding your connection: oIPs oInternet configuration oCarrier information oWi-Fi information oSystem details

Description of Smart Radio Monitor

Smart Radio Monitor (SRM) is a European Commission crowdsourcing project designed to gather and share radio spectrum data about mobile telephony coverage, Wi-Fi channel occupancy, broadband and net neutrality connection tests. Anyone with a recent iPhone can download an app which will automatically record the characteristics of the signal they’re getting on their phone — Wi-Fi, 4G, 3G, 2G or nothing — and test the latency, upload and download performance of their internet connection with additional net neutrality tests they can select. This data is saved locally to the phone and can be sent back to the SRM research database. The aim is then to plot the aggregated findings on a map, on an interactive website (http://srm.jrc.ec.europa.eu). The app is free to download, does not contain any advertisements and uses very little bandwidth and battery. The data is anonymised and the JRC will not collate or store any personal data. It could tell us, for instance, whether our mobile networks are capable of delivering broadband connectivity in parts of the country where the fixed-line service is patchy, whether coverage across cities is consistently good and whether some operators are supplying a better service than others. It may help also enforcement agencies and the European Commission to better assess, for example: • whether the various cellular operators are really giving good signal strength overall of the MS territory; • whether 2.4GHz/5GHz Wi-Fi channels over Europe are fully crowded or there whether there is still available space; • whether the European Commission’s radio spectrum policy programme (RSPP) target of a broadband speed of 30 Mb/s by 2020 (Article 3(c) of Decision No 243/2012/EU) will be reached; • whether internet service providers are blocking some protocols on their network. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
