# How to tell if the device is connected to the internet?

Go to the [device's IP addres](/most-common-issues/what-is-my-jv-device-ip-address-and-how-do-i-know-if-its-a-valid-one.md) and then navigate to  status > mlat network. \

If the logs have <mark style="color:green;">no complaints</mark> then you have internet connectivity<br>

If there are errors, i.e. `not connected` or `name error`, then you need to [setup the device for internet connectivity.](/setup-instructions/connecting-to-the-internet.md)  Also make sure your [device assigned IP address is a good one](/most-common-issues/what-is-my-jv-device-ip-address-and-how-do-i-know-if-its-a-valid-one.md). If you still gate <mark style="color:red;">name errors</mark> then you likely have issues with your router's or ISPs DNS system. You can attempt to [fix name errors yourself](/most-common-issues/i-get-dns-resolution-errors.md)
