Setup

If you can't connect

If the Wireless Router does not respond, check the following:

•The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:

•Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.

•Enter the command:

ping 192.168.1.254

If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your PC's IP address is not compatible with the Wireless Router's IP Address. (See next item.)

•If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 to be compatible with the Wireless Router's default IP Address of 192.168.1.254. Also, the Network Mask must be set to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for details on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.

•Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)

•Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface can only be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless settings.
