Chapter 13 Troubleshooting

13.3 Internet Access

I cannot access the Internet.

1Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide.

2Make sure the WAP3205 is connected to a broadband modem or router with Internet access.

3If you are trying to access the Internet wirelessly, make sure the wireless settings in the wireless client are the same as the settings in the AP.

Go to Network > Wireless LAN > General > WDS and check if the WAP3205 is set to bridge mode. Select Disable and try to connect to the Internet again.

4Disconnect all the cables from your device, and follow the directions in the Quick Start Guide again.

5Go to Maintenance > Sys OP Mode. Check your System Operation Mode setting.

Select Access Point Mode if your WAP3205 bridges traffic between clients on the same network.

Select Client Mode if your WAP3205 needs a wireless client to connect to an existing access point.

Select Universal Repeater Mode if you want to have wireless clients associate with the WAP3205 and also want to connect the WAP3205 to an existing access point.

6If the problem continues, contact your ISP.
