If the…

Perform These Tasks…

 

 

 

Power LED does not turn On.

Check power connector is properly inserted.

 

 

 

 

 

Power LED turns Red.

 

Remove power and re-apply. If the Power LED

 

 

 

remains Red, contact Quatech, Inc.

 

Power LED is Amber.

Bridge has not established an IP address either

 

through DHCP or Static methods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

DHCP is the default method by which the unit

 

 

 

obtains an IP address. Your network must have a

 

 

 

DHCP server available when the bridge is powered-

 

 

 

up. Most AP/Routers have a DHCP server built-in.

 

 

 

Enable your DHCP server and re-start the module.

 

 

 

 

 

Link LED continues to Blink Red.

 

Bridge has not found an Access Point with which to

 

 

associate. Be sure the Access Point you want to

 

 

 

 

 

 

use is turned on and has WEP disabled (you can

 

 

 

enable WEP after the Bridge has been configured).

 

 

 

If this does not help, be sure there are no nearby

 

 

 

devices causing interference. If there are, either turn

 

 

 

off or move the device causing the interference or

 

 

 

move the Bridge and Access Point to another

 

 

 

location.

 

Comm LED is Off or Amber.

Be sure an Ethernet device is connected to the

 

 

 

Bridge and that the device is turned on.

 

 

 

 

Comm LED is Red and Link LED is

 

No open TCP socket is recognized by the Bridge.

 

Green but you are unable to pass data.

 

Be sure you have an open TCP connection to the

 

 

 

bridge and the connection is in data pass mode.
