2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the Infrastructure mode.
Make sure the wireless client is associated and joined with the correct access point. To check this connection:
Right-click
on the
Local
Area Connection
icon in the taskbar> select
View Available Wireless Networks
. The
Connect to Wireless Network
screen will
appear. Please make sure you have selected the correct available network, as shown in the illustrations below.
• Check that the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the same IP address range as the access point and gateway.
Since the DWL-7700AP has an IP address of 192.168.0.50, wireless adapters must have an IP address in the same range, e.g.,
192.168.0.x. Each device must have a unique IP address; no two devices may have the same IP address. The subnet mask must
be the same for all the computers on the network.) To check the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter, double-click on the
Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar > select the Support tab and the IP address will be displayed. Please refer to Checking
the IP Address in the Networking Basics section of this manual.)
• If it is necessary to assign a Static IP Address to the wireless adapter, please refer to the appropriate section in Networking Basics.
If you are entering a DNS Server address you must also enter the Default Gateway Address. (Remember that if you have a DHCP
capable router, you will not need to assign a static IP address. See Networking Basics: Assigning a Static IP Address.)
