Network Connection Problems
If the Link LED on the SMC2336W-AG Adapter does not light, or
if you cannot access any network resources from the notebook,
check the following:
•
Make sure the correct software driver is installed for your
operating system. If necessary, try reinstalling the driver.
•
Make sure the notebook and other network devices are
receiving power.
•
The access point you want to connect to may be defective. Try
using another access point.
•
If you cannot access a Windows or NetWare service on the
network, check that you have enabled and configured the
service correctly. If you cannot connect to a particular server,
be sure that you have access rights and a valid ID and
password.
•
If you cannot access the Internet, be sure you have configured
your system for TCP/IP.
If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer in
the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, check
the following:
•
Make sure the access point that the station is associated with
is powered on.
•
If the connection still fails, change the access point and all the
clients within the BSS to another radio channel.
•
For a station with roaming disabled, make sure the SSID is the
same as that used by the access point, or the same as that
used by the access points in the extended service set (ESS).
