If Something Goes Wrong
If you need further assistance
❖
If another device is on the same network, verify that it has
network access, and can connect to the Internet. If, for
example, the other device cannot browse to a public Web site,
the ISP’s (Internet Service Provider) service may be disrupted.
❖
Verify that the Service Set Identifier (SSID), or network
name, is correct
-
i.e., that it matches the SSID assigned to the
access point you are attempting to connect through. SSIDs are
case-sensitive.
❖
If you have enabled any security provisions (closed system,
MAC address filtering, Wired Equivalent Privacy [WEP], etc.),
check the access point vendor's Web site for recent firmware
upgrades. Problems with WEP keys, in particular, are
frequently addressed in new firmware releases.
