The end device cannot connect to the
network.
❏ Choose AP Connections from the Maintenance
menu and verify that the MAC address of your
end device appears on your PC screen. If it does
not appear, your device is not communicating
with the access point. Check your radio
configuration settings.
❏ Verify that the access point is not filtering out
the type of traffic you are trying to pass through
it.
The end device cannot synch to the
access point. If you are using 802.11b HR radios:
❏ Verify that the end device and the access point
have the same frequency and network name.
The end devices are unable to roam to
another AT-WL2411. Roaming through switches requires backward
learning, which is part of the IEEE 802.1D standard. If
switches in your network do not support backward
learning, you can create a data link tunnel to force all
radio traffic through a fixed point so that roaming is
transparent to the bridges or switches.
To create a data link tunnel:
1. Set Ethernet Bridging to Enable on the root access
point.
2. Set Ethernet Bridging to Disabled on all access
points that are separated from the root by a
bridge or switch that does not support backward
learning.
You need to verify the static WEP keys. You cannot verify the WEP keys. The keys are
encrypted after you enter them and are never
displayed again. You may need to reconfigure your
access points and end devices to reset the WEP keys.
The filters are not filtering properly. Check all of your filter settings. Conflicts may exist
between the various filters.
You need to verify the WEP keys. You cannot verify the WEP keys. The keys are
encrypted after you enter them and are never

access points and end devices to reset the WEP keys.
You need to confirm which master a WAP
is connected to. To verify that a WAP is communicating with a
particular access point, view the AP Connections
screen for the access point. Click Maintenance, and
then click AP Connections.
