Troubleshooting
My computer does not recognise the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter.
Possible Solution:
• The 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter may not be fully inserted into the PCI slot. You can also try
installing the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter into a different PCI slot.
• Your PCI slot may not be configured correctly. To configure your PCI slot, contact your computer
manufacturer.
I am unable to communicate with an Access Point or Wireless Router.
Possible Solution:
Be sure that each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter that you want to connect to the wireless network is
set to Infrastructure mode within the Configuration Utility. If your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapters are
not set to Infrastructure mode, they will not be able to communicate with an Access Point or Wireless
Router.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that you are contacting the correct Access Point by verifying the MAC address.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that the correct Authentication Mode and WEP encryption key are being used. If you changed the
settings in the configuration of the Access Point, you must also change the settings of every 802.11g
Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter attached to this network. The settings of the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI
Adapters must match the new settings of the Access Point. If you are still experiencing difficulties, reset all
of your Wireless Access Points and wireless network adapters to the default settings and try again.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that you can connect to the Wireless Access Point and that the BSSID shows the MAC address of
the Access Point you want to communicate with.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that the Wireless Configuration Utility is installed for your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter and
that the Wireless Configuration Utility detects your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter.
Possible Solution:
If you are not using a U.S. Robotics Wireless Access Point, ensure that you can connect to the Access Point
and that the preamble mode is set correctly. The default setting is Long.
I received a message that my computer shares a name with or there was an IP address conflict with another
computer on the wireless network.
Possible Solution:
Each computer on the wireless network must have a unique name and IP address. Refer to your
computer's documentation to see how to change the name or the IP address of your computer.
I am unable to establish a wireless connection with my 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter.
Possible Solution:
Verify that the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter is properly installed. If you continue to experience
problems, uninstall the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter and repeat the installation procedure.
Possible Solution:
If you are attempting a peer-to-peer connection, verify that each wireless adapter is set to 802.11 Adhoc
mode. If you are using a Wireless Access Point, verify that each wireless adapter is set to Infrastructure
mode.
My 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter does not see my Access Point in the list when I scan for it.
Possible Solution:
If you create a wireless connection with the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter but are experiencing poor
link quality, check the positioning of the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter. Long distances, multiple
floors, or steel or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possible, reposition the 802.11g Wireless
Turbo PCI Adapter to reduce the effect of any of these obstacles. In addition, check any physical
connections between the Access Point and your modem, router, hub, LAN, or switch.
Possible Solution:
If your Access Point is not broadcasting an SSID, it will not appear during a scan by your 802.11g Wireless
Turbo PCI Adapter. The client will need to be manually configured.
I accidentally clicked Cancel during the software installation procedure for the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI
Adapter.
Possible Solution:
Remove and reinsert the Installation CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. Repeat Step 1 in the installation
procedure.
The software installation procedure did not begin when I inserted the Installation CD-ROM.
Possible Solution:
Some programs may keep the autolaunch feature of the Installation CD-ROM from beginning. Close any
open applications and reinsert the Installation CD-ROM. If the Installation CD-ROM interface does not run
automatically, click Windows Start and then click Run. In the "Run" dialog box, type D:\setup.exe. If your CD-
ROM drive uses a different letter, type that letter in place of "D."
The 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter cannot communicate with other computers linked via Wireless in
the Infrastructure configuration.
Possible Solution:
• Ensure that each computer in the wireless network is powered on.
• Ensure that each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter is configured on the same operating radio
channel. If the IDs are different, change each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter within the LAN to the
new radio channel.
• Ensure TCP/IP is installed. Ensure you are a part of the same domain or workgroup. Ensure that you are
automatically obtaining the IP address or that you have a correct IP address and subnet mask. Reset
the Wireless Access Point and restart the computer that has a connectivity issue.
• Ensure that you have some files available for sharing.
