Connection lab

Checks whether this browser can let a device back into the network after the app was closed, with no QR. Nothing here touches the games. Run it in the installed app (from its icon) and, if you like, in the browser too.

1. A key that survives a restart

Run once, then close the app completely (swipe it away) and open this page again.

2. A password of our own

3. Connecting by a prepared answer

One side waits with an answer it worked out in advance; the other arrives later and connects without sending it anything. The longer waits show how long a waiting side lasts.

4. The same with the camera off

How the app will really do it. The camera opens for a moment so the device learns its own address, then closes; the waiting side, with no camera, hides its address behind an mDNS name, and the learned address is put back in its place. Best run first thing after opening the app.
