This Chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the installation and
operation of the PheeNet WAP-654GP Wireless Access Point. We cover various aspects
of the network setup, including the network adapters. Please read the following if you are
having problems.
Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to configure the PheeNet
WAP-654GP Wireless Access Point.
The computer used to configure the PheeNet WAP-654GP cannot access the
Configuration menu.
Check that the Ethernet LED on the PheeNet WAP-654GP is ON. If the LED is not ON,
check that the cable for the Ethernet connection is securely inserted.
Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly. Please see item 3 (Check that the
drivers for the network adapters are installed properly) in this Troubleshooting section to
check that the drivers are loaded properly.
Check that the IP address is in the same range and subnet as the PheeNet WAP-654GP.
Please see Checking the IP Address in Windows XP
in the Networking Basics section of
this manual.
Note: The IP address of the PheeNet WAP-654GP is 192.168.1.254. All the computers on the
network must have a unique IP address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.1.x. Any computers
that have identical IP addresses will not be visible on the network. They must all have the
same subnet mask, e.g., 255.255.255.0. Do a
Ping test to make sure that the Wireless High
Power AP/Bridge is responding. Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping 192.168.1.254.
A successful ping will show four replies.
Note: If you have changed the default IP address, make sure to ping the correct IP address
assigned to the PheeNet WAP-654GP.
