This chapter discusses how you can diagnose and fix errors quickly without having to
contact a dealer or Lantronix. It helps to connect a terminal to the setup port while
diagnosing an error to view summary messages that may display. When troubleshooting,
always ensure that the physical connections (power cable, network cable, and serial
cable) are secure.

Problem/Message

Solution

Network Name (SSID) in the
WiSpan is not set or does not
match the Access Point (AP).

Verify Network Name (SSID) for
the WiSpan and AP are the same.
These are case-sensitive.

Cannot establish an
Infrastructure network
connection to the WiSpan.

The AP has WEP encryption
enabled and the WiSpan does
not or WEP authentication type
does not match the AP.

Enable WEP encryption in
WiSpan. Set encryption key and
authentication type to match the
AP. Ensure the key is in HEX
notation in both the AP and the
WiSpan.

within 5 seconds.
