TROUBLESHOOTING

Make sure the correct software driver is installed. Try reinstalling the driver.

Make sure the computer and other network devices are receiving power.

The access point you want to connect to may not be functioning correctly. Try using another access point.

If you cannot access a Windows or NetWare service on the network, check that you have enabled and configured the service correctly. If you cannot connect to a particular server, be sure that you have access rights and a valid ID and password.

If you cannot access the Internet, be sure you have configured your system for TCP/IP.

If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer on the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, check the following:

Make sure the access point that the station is associated with is powered on.

Check that the wireless settings (i.e., WEP, SSID, Channel) match the access point or other stations to which you are attempting to connect.

If you still cannot connect, change the access point and all the stations within the BSS to another radio channel.
