Q9 The wireless LAN does not work properly when there is a device
operating on an adjacent frequency in the vicinity of the prod-
uct.
A1 Channel interference may occur when a wireless video transceiver or a
microwave oven is being used.If you experience channel interference from other
equipment, it is recommended changing the channel to connect to the AP. For
more information about AP settings, refer to the User Manual supplied by the AP
manufacturer.
A2 Since IEEE802.11g equipment operates in hybrid mode when there is active
IEEE802.11b equipment, the data rate may be degraded.
Q10 An established wireless LAN connection is disconnected after
2~3 minutes, and the connection is not recovered.
A1 This may be caused by channel interference. Change the channel of the AP, and
reconnect.
A2 This may be caused by selecting the ‘Use IEEE 802.1x network authentication’
option when IEEE 802.1x authentication is not available.
Check the properties of the AP in the wireless network settings. If the ‘Use IEEE
802.1x authentication in this network’ option is selected, deselect the option on
the Authentication tab.For more detailed information about authentication server,
ask your network administrator.
