Troubleshooting

My computer does not recognize the Wireless Access Point after I
changed the settings.

Possible Solution:

Ensure that the WLAN Configuration utility is installed for your Wireless
Access Point and that the Configuration utility is installed and functioning
for your Wireless Access PC Cards or PCI Adapters.

Possible Solution:

Ensure that you are contacting the correct Wireless Access Point and
using the correct MAC address. 

Possible Solution:

Ensure that the correct password and encryption option are being used. 
If you changed the settings in the configuration of the Wireless Access
Point, you must also change the settings of every Wireless Access PC 
Card or PCI Adapter attached to this network. The settings of the 
Wireless Access PC Cards or PCI Adapters must match the new settings 
of the Wireless Access Point.

I am unable to communicate with the Wireless Access Point.

Possible Solution:

Be sure that each Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter that you want to 
connect to the wireless network is set to 

Infrastructure

mode within the

Configuration Utility. If your Wireless Access PC Cards or PCI Adapters are
not set to 

Infrastructure

mode, they will not be able to communicate with

the Wireless Access Point.

Possible Solution:

Your Wireless Access Point may not be responding. Try resetting the
Wireless Access Point to reactivate it. Press in and hold the Reset button.
While holding in the Reset button, unplug the power adapter from the
Wireless Access point and then plug it back in. Release the Reset button
and then press it once. This will restore the factory default settings. When
this is performed, the Wireless Activity LED will blink. If you press the
Reset button a second time, all setting information except for the pass-
word and the encryption data will be cleared. If this is done, the Wireless
Link Indicator will blink.

Possible Solution:

Your Wireless Access Point may not have received a valid IP address for
your network. If you see a window stating that a free IP address could 
not be determined when you double-click the Wireless Access Point in 
the Access Point Configuration Utility, you need to manually assign an IP
address. Refer to the Assigning an IP address to the Wireless Access Point
section in this guide.

I am unable to enter the Wireless Access Point Web Configurator.

Possible Solution:

Be certain that you are entering the correct user name (if there is one) and
password. The password field is case-sensitive. The default password is
W

WLLA

AN

N_

_A

AP

P and there is no default user name.

The 

TCP/IP Settings

option will

supply your current settings, as
well as give you the option to
change any of these settings. 

When you are finished making
any changes, click 

Apply

Changes

to save your settings.

There is also the 

Change

Password

option, where you

can change your password.

It is recommended that you
write down the password for
future reference. If you forget
your password, you will be

locked out of the Access Point Web Configurator. You can reset the
Wireless Access Point to restore the default settings. Press in and hold the
Reset button. While holding in the Reset button, unplug the power adapter
from the Wireless Access point and then plug it back in. Release the Reset
button and then press it once. This will restore the factory default settings.
When this is performed, the Wireless Activity LED will blink. If you press
the Reset button a second time, all setting information except for the
password and the encryption data will be cleared. If this is done, the
Wireless Link Indicator will blink.

When you are finished changing your password, click 

Apply

for the new

password to be activated. For security purposes, it is recommended 
that you change your password after you successfully log in. Anytime 
you reset the Wireless Access Point, your password will revert to the
default setting.

When you are finished viewing or changing your Wireless Access Point
information, click 

Logout

. You will then be asked if you are sure that you

want to logout. Click 

Yes
