If your wireless network appears, but the signal strength is weak, check these conditions:

•Is your router too far from your computer, or too close? Place your computer near the router, but at least 6 feet away, and see whether the signal strength improves.

•Is your wireless signal obstructed by objects between the router and your computer? See “Wireless Placement and Range Guidelines” on page 2-2.

If your wireless network appears and has good signal strength, configure your wireless card and router for the simplest possible connection, as described in the next section.
