Double-click Network adapters and verify whether the network
4
interface connected to the Wireless LAN PC Card or Ethernet card
appears in the list.
If the network interface connected to the Wireless LAN PC Card
5
or Wireless LAN Converter does not appear in the list, refer to
the appropriate documentation for details about how to make
your computer detect the interface.
Did you see the IP address of the computer?
Refer to Case 1 to obtain the IP address.
If an IP address starting with 169.254 is displayed, a suitable IP address
was not obtained with Obtain IP address automatically and Windows
has automatically assigned an address to the LAN PC Card. In this condition,
a correct network connection is not possible. Perform the setup again as
described in the Quick Start Guide.
Is your computer properly configured for
wireless communication?
When using the Access Point functions under factory default
settings, configure the computer as follows (Windows XP and
the Wireless LAN PC Card):
Click Start and then Control Panel.
1
In Control Panel, double-click Network Connections.

If Network Connections does not appear, click Switch to classic view.
In the Network Connections window, right-click the icon of the wireless
3
network to which you want to connect and click View Available
Wireless Networks.
In the Connect to Wireless Network dialog box, select the Access Point
4
from Available Wireless Networks and click Connect. When using
the Access Point functions under factory default settings, check the
6-character identifier printed on the label inside the rear cover of the
wireless unit.
Are the Network Name (SSID) and Data Encryption (WEP)
settings configured correctly?
To connect to the Access Point, the Network Name (SSID) and Data Encryption
(WEP) settings must be the same on the computer and the Access Point.
When using the Access Point functions under factory default settings, use the
settings listed above. With Windows Me and Windows 2000, verify the Access
Point Network Name (SSID) and Data Encryption (WEP) settings of the
Wireless LAN PC Card as described in its documentation.
