8.6.3 Serial Link Does Not Work

1. Double-check the physical network connections.
2. Make sure your PC terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) is active and configured to the following values:
– Com Port: (COM1, COM2 and so on depending on your computer);
– Baud rate: 115200; Data bits: 8; Stop bits: 1; Flow Control: None; Parity: None;
– Line Feeds with Carriage Returns
(In HyperTerminal select: File > Properties > Settings > ASCII Setup > Send Line Ends with Line Feeds)

8.6.4 Cannot Access the Web Interface

1. Open a command prompt window and type the Ping command along with the IP address of the device. For example,
ping 10.0.0.1. If the device does not respond, check if you have the correct IP address. If the device responds then it
means the ethernet connection is working properly.
2. Ensure that you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 (or later) or Mozilla Firefox 3.0 (or later).
3. Ensure that you are not using a proxy server for the network connection with your Web browser.
4. Ensure that you have not exceeded the maximum number of Web Interfaces or CLI sessions.
5. Double-check the physical network connections. Use a well-known device to ensure the network connection is
functioning properly.
6. Troubleshoot the network infrastructure (check switches, routers, and so on).
: At any point of time, if your device is unable to connect to your network, reset the device by unplugging and plugging
the cables from the PoE (if using a PoE).

8.7 Setup and Configuration Problems

8.7.1 Device Reboots Continuously

One of the reason for the device to reboot continuously is that the radio card is not properly placed in the mini-PCI slot. When
you power on the device and you do not see the "WIRELESS NETWORK1 PASSED" message in the POST message in the
Serial Console, please contact Proxim's support site at http://support.proxim.com.

affect the image of the device. The default HTTP, Telnet, and SNMP username is "admin" and password is "public" for the
device.

8.7.3 Device Responds Slowly

If the device takes a long time to respond, it could mean that:
No DHCP server is available.
The IP address of the device is already in use. Verify that the IP address is assigned only to the device. Do this by
switching off the device and then pinging the IP address. If there is a response to the ping, another device in the
network is using the same IP address. If the device uses a static IP address, switching to DHCP mode could solve this
problem. Also see Setting the IP Address with ScanTool.
The network traffic is high.
