Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway to work in specific situations including:
•"Using AOL" on page 61
•"@Home configuration" on page 62
•"Media One configuration" on page 63
If a wireless client is able to connect to the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gate-
way, but not able to access the Internet you may have the wrong WEP Key
entered.
Check if other computers on the local network function. If they do, make sure
that your computer's IP settings are correct (IP Address, Network Mask,
Default Gateway and DNS).
If the computer is configured correctly, but still not working, make sure the
Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway is connected and powered ON. Follow
instructions in "Getting Started" on page 1 to use the configuration utility to
check its settings.
If the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway is configured correctly, check
your Internet connection (modem) to see that it is working correctly.

allow the use of Internet applications which do not function correctly.
Use the Exposed Computer function (see "Advanced Internet" on page 37).
