NETWORK CONNECTION PROBLEMS

If the LED’s on the USB adapter are not lit, or if you can’t access
any network resources from the computer. Check the following:

• Make sure the correct software driver is installed. Try

reinstalling the driver.

• Make sure the computer and other network devices are

receiving power.

• The access point you want to connect to may not be

functioning correctly. 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 on
the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, check
the following:

• Make sure the Access Point which the station associated

with is powered on.

• Check to make sure your wireless settings (i.e. WEP, SSID,

Channel) match the AP or other stations you are connecting to.

• If you still can’t connect, change the Access Point and all

the stations within the BSS to another radio channel.
