Dial-in Access

Problem 1: Remote PC can't connect to the Wireless Gateway.

Solution 1: Check the settings on the Wireless Gateway

Serial Port is Enabled.

Dial-in is Enabled.

User has been created, and has Dial-in permission.

Call-back settings are correct for this user.

Modem settings are correct.

Both the Wireless Gateway and the remote PC are using the same settings for the login authentication (PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP).

Check the Modem

Modem is properly connected and powered on.

The modem is working correctly, and the Remote user is dialing the correct telephone number for the modem.

This can be checked by listening to the modem. You should hear the Wireless Gateway's modem answer the incoming call.

If the call is received but not answered, the modem's "Auto- answer" feature is turned OFF. To turn it on, add the appropriate AT command to the Initial String in the on the Wireless Gate- way's Modem Properties screen. See Chapter 6 for details of the Modem Properties screen, and Appendix C for more information on AT commands.

If the call is answered, but no connection is established, then ei- ther the modems are unable to negotiate a connection, or the login to the Wireless Gateway has failed.

This can be checked by examining the Log file for the Remote PC. See Finding the current Initial String in Appendix C for in- structions on enabling and viewing the Log file.

Check the Remote PC

Ensure that both the Wireless Gateway and the remote PC are using the same settings for the login authentication (PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP).

When prompted for "User Name" and "Password", the remote user must enter the correct User Name and Password, as configured on the Wireless Gateway's User Details screen.

The modem Log file on the remote PC may provide useful information about the cause of the connection failure. See Finding the current Ini- tial String in Appendix C for instructions on enabling and viewing the Log file.

Problem 2: Remote PC can connect using Dial-in, but can't access LAN resources.

Answer 2: Currently, Microsoft networking (using NetBIOS over TCP/IP) is not supported. Only standard TCP/IP connections can be made. So the Dial-in PC cannot use Network Neighborhood, or Windows File/Print sharing.
