5.2 Problems With the Utility Confi guration
PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
While starting the confi guration
utility, the program starts up and
terminates immediately with no
errors.
The D2D/ParkerVision software may not recognize that the card has been inserted. Try
removing and re-inserting the card. Make sure that Windows is recognizing the card when
it is inserted.
Note for Windows XP users: Another reason the utility may terminate results from
Windows XP controlling the card services at installation time. You may check this with
the following steps: Click Start, Control Panel. From Control Panel, select Network, then
Wireless Network Settings, and uncheck the “Use Windows to confi gure my wireless
network settings.” More information on this can be found in this manual in Section 4.11.
5.3 Problems With Access Point Settings
PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
Problems with AP settings. Make sure that the Access Point (AP) and the associated computer are turned on.
Check to see if the access point is displayed in the available connections section of the
D2D/ParkerVision Management Utility.
From a Windows Command Prompt, use the Ping Command to test connectivity to the
Access Point. Consult your Access Point manual for the appropriate IP Address.
Consult your Access Point Manual for additional troubleshooting tips.
