Troubleshooting
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Make sure the ZyXEL G-260 is properly inserted and the LED is on.
Use the Device Manager to check for possible hardware conflicts. Click Start,
Settings, Control Panel, System, Hardware and Device Manager. Verify the
status of the ZyXEL G-260 under Network Adapter. (Steps may vary depending
on the version of Windows).
Install the ZyXEL G-260 in another computer.
If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this case, you should
contact your local vendor.
If you install the Funk Odyssey Client software on the computer, uninstall (remove)
both the Funk Odyssey Client software and ZyXEL utility, and then install the
ZyXEL utility again after restarting the computer.
If you use the Windows XP configuration tool and the ZyXEL Utility to configure the
ZyXEL G-260 at the same time, the ZyXEL Utility icon does not display. You need
to disable the Windows XP configuration tool (refer to
more information).
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Search and connect to another AP with a better link quality using the Site Survey
screen.
Move your computer closer to the AP or the peer computer(s) within the
transmission range.
There may be too much radio interference (for example microwave or another AP
using the same channel) around your wireless network. Relocate or reduce the
radio interference.
