■Confirm AP and wireless client wireless LAN service area.
■Check that the radio driver loaded properly.
■Check that the wireless client PROTOCOL.INI or NET.CFG file is compatible with the network operating system.

■Verify that antenna diversity setting for AP is appropriate. If using one antenna, the setting is Primary Only, if using two antennas, the setting is Primary and Secondary.
■Verify network traffic does not exceed 37% of bandwidth.
■Check to see that the wired network does not exceed 10 broadcast messages per second.
■Verify wired network topology and configuration.
