Network Connection Problems

If the Link LED on the PC Card does not light, or if you cannot access any network resources from the computer, check the following:

Make sure the correct software driver is installed for your operating system. If necessary, try reinstalling the driver.

Make sure the computer and other network devices are receiving power.

The access point you want to attach to may be defective. Try using another access point.

If you cannot access a Windows or NetWare service on the network, check that you have enabled and configured the service correctly. If you cannot connect to a particular server, be sure that you have access rights and a valid ID and password.

If you cannot access the Internet, be sure you have configured your system for TCP/IP.

If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer in the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, check the following:

Make sure the access point that the station is associated with is powered on.

If you still cannot connect, change the access point and all the stations within the BSS to another radio channel.

For a station with roaming disabled, make sure the SSID is the same as that used by the access point, or the same as that used by the access points in the extended service set (ESS.)
