Networks (wireless)
You turned wireless networking on, but it takes a while to
connect
•
When wireless networking is turned on, it automatically
scans for available connections. The scan can take
approximately 30 seconds to complete.
Your connection on the network seems intermittent or your
wireless network is running slower than you expect
•
The speed of a wireless network is related to signal
strength. Signal strength is affected by the distance
between your wireless network devices, by radio
interference, and by interference from natural
obstructions such as walls, ceilings, floors, and doors.
If your wireless network is running slower than you
expect, you should check your network signal strength.
If you find the signal strength is low, try moving to a
new location to increase the signal strength.
To check the signal strength:
1
Click Start , right-click My Network Places , then
click Properties . The Network Connections window
opens.
Important
Note any antenna placement constraints in the access point user
guide because the speed of a wireless network is related to signal
strength. Signal strength is affected by the distance between your
wireless network devices, by radio interference, and by interference
from natural obstructions such as walls, floors, and doors.
