Wireless LAN Activity
LED (6) is blinking a short
on once per second.
There is no activity on
the wireless LAN. If
you know there is
activity on the wire l e ss
LAN, then this status
indicates that the PC
Card has an incorrect
wireless parameter or is
not operating properly.
Reconfigure the wireless
parameters. Ensure that
the AP and all wireless
clients in the AP’s
coverage area have the
same wireless parameters.
Verify that the PC Card is
installed proper ly.
Bridge State LED (4)
is off.
Self-test in progress or a
spanning tree
reconfiguration is
underway.
Otherwise, this status
may indicate that there
is a redundant AP
handling the network
traffic and that this A P
is in Standby mode.
Wait until self-test or
reconfiguration ends.
If the AP is in Standby
mode, verify your
network configuration to
determine whether there is
another AP conf igured to
operate in the same
coverage area.
Bridge State LED (4) is
blinking. Downline load is in
progress. Wait for downline load to
complete.
PC Card Present LED (7)
is off. There is no PC Car d
installed in the slot, or it
is not properly inserted.
Turn off power and insert
the PC Card into the AP.
