If the SSID option is set to Hide, you will not be able to find the AP on your computer.
It is recommended unselecting the Hide option of the AP. SSID (Service Set ID)
is a name used to distinguish a wireless LAN from other wireless LANs.
It is recommended using Long Preamble. Preamble is a signal for data transmis-
sion synchronization. Although some APs support Short Preamble, there might
be a compatibility problem.
Because 'Fixed' channel selection is more stable then 'Auto' channel selection,
'Fixed' channel selection is recommended. It is recommended not using the
'Block Any' and 'Any Connection Block' functions. Although these functions
block connections at the client side when the network name is Any or Blank, it
may cause a compatibility problem.
For more information on the AP settings, refer to the owner's manual supplied

allocated, the IP address will be displayed as follows; (e.g. 169.254.xxx.xxx).
If your network does not support DHCP, you have to manually configure an IP
address by asking your network administrator.
In addition, even if your network supports DHCP, the Internet connection may not
be available if the DHCP server fails to allocate an IP address to your computer.
Q4 I have configured both wired and wireless connections with the same IP
address, but the network connections do not work properly.
A
You cannot use the same IP address for wired and wireless connections. To use only
one IP address for both wired and wireless connections, you must disable one of
them according to your requirements in Network Connections in the Control Panel.
