•Make sure that the SSID on the DWL-650+ Cardbus adapter is exactly the same as the SSID on the Access Point or wireless router.

3.The DWL-650+ Power and Link lights are not on.

4.I forgot my Encryption key.

•Reset the Access Point to its factory default settings and restore the DWL-650+ Wireless Cardbus Adapter to the factory default settings. (The default settings are listed in Ch.6: Using the Configuration Utility in this manual.)

5.The computer does not recognize the DWL-650+ Wireless Adapter.

•Make sure that the DWL-650+ Wireless Adapter is properly seated in the computer’s Cardbus slot.

C.Search for the files TIACXLN.INF and TIACXLN.SYS. Remove these files from the INF and SYSTEM32 (DRIVERS) folders in the Windows directory. Note: Windows XP and Windows 2000 will rename .inf files that have not received WHQL certification into oem.inf files (e.g., oem1.inf.)

6.The computer with the DWL-650+ installed is unable to connect to the wireless network.
