The “WLAN:” shows the current connection status reported by the internal RF card. This status can be a very useful tool to determine if an RF connection is being made. The description of this status is shown below:

Disabled

This normally means that either the

 

network settings are being changed or the

 

RF card is malfunctioning or not making

 

contact.

Searching

This can appear in these types of

 

situations:

 

1. No access point at all.

 

2. There is no RF coverage in this area.

 

3. The SSID is set wrong.

 

4. The WEP is wrong and the authorization

 

is set to SharedKey.

Connected - Ad Hoc

This is when the M71V2 is connected to

 

one and only one RF card in a peer-to-peer

 

mode (like a laptop PC RF card).

Connected - AP

Normally, this means everything is OK and

 

the user should be able to communicate. It

 

is possible that the WEP settings are

 

wrong but the authorization is set to

 

OpenSystem.

Out of Range

This means that there was a functioning

 

connection and the unit has gone out of

 

range.

The “MAC: 00:0F:66:19:32:61” is the MAC hardware address of the currently connected Access Point! This address is unique to each Access Point used. In Ad-Hoc mode this will display “N/A – Ad Hoc Mode”.

The “TX Rate” shows the speed in Mega-Bits per Second (Mbps) that the unit is currently transferring data. The transfer speed will start at 11 Mbps and “fall-back” to lower speeds depending on the RF strength and quality. This “fall-back” is automatic and can not be set by the operator. If you find this speed to be unacceptably low, you must improve the wireless RF network coverage in your area.
