Network Connection Problems

If the Link LED on the Card does not light, or if you cannot access
any network resources from the computer, check the following:
• Make sure the correct software driver is installed for your
operating system. If necessary, try reinstalling the driver.
• Make sure the computer and other network devices are
receiving power.
• The access point you want to attach to may be defective. Try
using another access point.
• If you cannot access a Windows or NetWare service on the
network, check that you have enabled and configured the
service correctly. If you cannot connect to a particular server,
be sure that you have access rights and a valid ID and
password.
• If you cannot access the Internet, be sure you have configured
your system for TCP/IP.
If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer in
the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, check
the following:
• Make sure the access point that the station is associated with
is powered on.
• If you still cannot connect, change the access point and all the
stations within the BSS to another radio channel.
• For a station with roaming disabled, make sure the SSID is the
same as that used by the access point, or the same as that
used by the access points in the extended service set (ESS).
