ASUS WiFi-b™ Card

Problem

Action

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

Check if the Network Type of the
WiFi-b™ card is set to Ad Hoc
mode.

Check if the WiFi-b™ has the
same Service Set Identifier
(SSID)
with that of the other
station.

Check if the WiFi-b™ card and the
other station have the same
Encryption. If you enable WEP
encryption, you must set the same
WEP keys for both stations.

There is poor signal reception.
Place the WiFi-b™ antenna
nearer to the other station.

I cannot connect to other
computers linked via an Access
Point or Ad Hoc network.

Check if the WiFi-b™ card 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 WiFi-b™
card 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.

I always have poor link quality
and signal strength

You may achieve better link quality
and stronger signal by:

Keeping the WiFi-b™ away from
microwave ovens and large metal
objects to avoid radio interference.

Reorienting the WiFi-b™ antenna.

Shortening the distance between
the WiFi-b™ card and the AP/
another station.
