My computer is experiencing difficulty connecting to the wireless network.

Ensure that your PC and wireless access point is powered on.
Ensure that your wireless PCI adapter is installed correctly and is active.
Ensure that your wireless PCI adapter and access point radio signal is enabled.
Review your access point's documentation for further instructions.
Ensure that your wireless PCI adapter for your PC and the wireless access point have
the same security settings that will allow your computer to access the wireless network.
Refer to the Configuration section of the documentation that came with your access
point.
Verify that the Access Control List (ACL) is not configured to block your PC. Refer to the
Configuration section of the documentation that came with your access point.
Ensure that your wireless PCI adapter is within range of your access point or is not
behind an obstruction; for example, metal structures will interfere with the signal, as will
2.4 GHz cordless phones, and microwaves.
Ensure that your access point antenna is connected.
