Troubleshooting
This section describes how to solve
common problems you may encounter
when using your Wireless LAN PC
Card or Wireless LAN Access Point.
Many problems have simple solutions,
so try these suggestions before you call
your Sony dealer.
❒
On the overall wireless
communications
My computer does not detect the
Wireless LAN PC Card.
c
The Wireless LAN PC Card may not
be properly inserted into the PC
card slot of your computer. Check
that the Wireless LAN PC Card is
inserted in the proper direction,
then push it in as far as it will go.
Other computers on the wireless
LAN are not displayed. (You use
PCWA-A100 for your Access Point
or establish a wireless
communication between computers
in Peer to Peer mode.)
c
You did not enter the password
when Windows started. Enter the
user name and the password
requested on Windows startup, then
log onto the LAN.
c
The Windows-based environment is
not properly set up. Follow the
instructions in Setting up Windows
environment to set it up properly.
(See page 26, 33 or 40.)

No other computers are logged onto
the wireless LAN.
I cannot access the Internet.

The Access Point is not connected.
Follow the instructions in the Access

The Wireless LAN PC Card is not
properly inserted into your

properly.

The Access Point is not properly
configured. Configure the Access

another Access Point. Try assigning
another channel number using one
