4. Troubleshooting

Refer to the following tips to resolve any problems that you may
encounter when using the ASUS WL-HDD2.5.

1. The ASUS WL-HDD2.5 cannot be found using the Search for

computer technique.

– Use the Device Discovery tool of the wireless utility on your

wireless client to search for the WL-HDD. If the WL-HDD
is found with a different subnet mask from your client, set
the IP of your client to the same subnet.

– If the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 is not found using Device Discov-

ery, please check your network connection.

2. Only the Configuration folder found on the WL-HDD.

– Check if the hard disk drive is mounted correctly on the

ASUS WL-HDD2.5.

– Check if the hard disk drive is formatted.
– Check if the partitions and folders are shared using the

Shared Nodes utility (see “Shared Nodes” on page 64).

3. Shared folders cannot be accessed using Windows 98 or

Windows Me.

– If you use Windows 98 or Windows Me to access the shared

folders that are protected by username and password, you
can only view the contents of the folder which uses the same
username and password pair as your wireless client.
