Troubleshooting (Cont.)

I cannot connect to an Access Point.

• Check if the Network Type of the device is set to Infrastructure mode.

• Check if the device has the same Service Set Identifier (SSID) as that of the

AP.

• Check if the device and the AP have the same Encryption. If WEP encryption

is enabled, set the same WEP keys for the device and the AP.

• Check if the MAC address of the device is added in the AP Authorization

Table. Inquire this with your LAN administrator.

• There is poor signal reception. Shorten the distance between the device and the

access point.

I can connect to an Access Point but I cannot connect to the Internet.

• Check if the device and the AP have the same Encryption. If WEP encryption

is enabled, set the same WEP keys for the device and the AP.

• Make sure the network protocol parameters (IP address, subnet mask, gateway,

and DNS) of your computer are correctly set.

• Check the proxy settings of the web browser.

I cannot connect to another station with a wireless LAN device.

• Check if the Network Type of the device is set to Ad-hoc mode.

• Check if the device has the same Service Set Identifier (SSID) with that of the

other station.

• There is poor signal reception. Shorten the distance between the device and the

station.

• Check if the device and the other station have the same Encryption. If WEP

encryption is enabled, set the same WEP keys for the device and the AP.

I cannot connect to other computers linked via an Access Point or Ad-hoc

network.

• Check if the device and the other APs and/or clients have the same Encryption. If

you enable WEP encryption, you must set the same WEP keys for the device and the

other AP/s and/or clients.

• Check the TCP/IP settings (IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS) of your

computer.

• Enable file and printer sharing in each client computer to allow file sharing.
