A2 When operating in EEE802.11g mode, if there is
a IEEE802.11b device operating nearby, you may
experience low data rates or even disconnection as it
operates in Hybrid mode.
▶ Check the authentication type.
A A connection may be disconnected after a period of
time if the "Use IEEE 802.1x network authentication"
option is selected when IEEE 802.1x authentication
is not being used.
View the properties of the corresponding AP in the
Wireless Network Properties. In the Authentication
tab, unselect the "Use IEEE 802.1x authentication in
this network" option.
For detailed information on the authentication server,
ask your network administrator.
▶ Check the AP settings.
A1 Check if the surroundings are appropriate for a
wireless LAN. A wireless LAN connection may be
limited by the surrounding environment and distance.
Obstacles such as walls and door mats affect the
quality of the wireless LAN signal. You have to install
an AP in a high, open position far away from any
other radio signal sources. If the AP is excessively
far away, or is installed at the end of a building and
you are attempting to use the wireless LAN from the
other end, you may not be able to use the wireless
communication normally because the signal is
blocked by obstacles between you and the AP (such
as a wall).
A2 Check if the AP operates properly. If the AP is not
operating properly, turn it off and on again and try
again.
A3 Check if the AP firmware is the latest version. (For
more information on the AP firmware, ask the AP
manufacturer or your product provider.)
A4 Check if the AP is properly connected to the network.
Connect the LAN cable from the AP to a computer
and check if the network is connected properly.
