7.Troubleshooting
Using a Profile with an incorrect WEP Encryption Key
When connected to an access point using a profile with an incorrect WEP key encryption, the
task tray icon and the General page will both indicate good signal strength and that you are
associated with the AP. However, when you attempt to send data to the AP using this profile,
because of the incorrect WEP key encryption, authentication cannot be established to acquire
an IP address from the AP to allow data transfer.
Refer to the following WEP encryption and authentication settings.
Open Authentication with an incorrect WEP 64 or 128-bit encryption key:
•
A profile with an incorrect WEP encryption key will allow the wireless adapter to
associate with the access point.
•
No data transfer
Open Authentication with no WEP encryption:
•
Allows association to an access point
•
Data transfer is allowed
Shared Authentication:
•
Associated to an AP always allows data transfer.
Problems with installation
Windows does not detect the wireless adapter:
1. Remove and re-install the adapter.
2. Uninstall and reinstall the adapter's drivers.
