FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick
Checking the Network Data
You computer recognizes the network and the router, but
cannot access the Internet or the network (limited
connectivity).
Possible Cause
The WLAN key is wrong or the IP address was not assigned by
Windows automatically (note: the process can take up to three
minutes).
Remedy
Check the WLAN key entry. On AVM FRITZ!Box products, the
WLAN key is printed on the underside of the device and on the
installation CD jewel case.
If you are using a WLAN access point from another manufactur-
er, please see the documentation of this device.
Make sure that the automatic assignment of IP addresses is en-
abled in your operating system. For details, see the section
"Checking the IP Settings" from page 49.
Checking the Data of the Ad-hoc Connection
The FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick and a further WLAN adapter are
connected directly via WLAN, but cannot exchange any data
with each other.
Possible Cause
The IP address was not assigned by Windows automatically
(note: the process can take up to three minutes), or the network
key, workgroup or ad-hoc network names do not match.
Remedy
Make sure that the ad-hoc network name of your connection
and the network key match, and that automatic assignment of
IP addresses is enabled in your operating system. The connect-
ed computers must be in the same working group (see also:
"Encryption" from page 36 and "Checking the IP Settings" from
page 49).
