5.1 Problem Solving
- WL-3550 cannot work properly
Probable Causes & Solution:
Insert the PCMCIA adapter into Notebooks slot again. A beep should be heard if the adapter is properly
inserted.
Check the I/O cable that connects the RF module and the
PCMCIA adapter. The power LED should be turn on if the cable is properly connected.
In a non-Windows 95 environment, make sure a PCMCIA card
service driver installed in your computer. Check Sec. 3-2 Hardware Installation for
WL-3550.
WL-3550 station cannot communicate with computer in the
Ethernet when the Infrastructure mode is configured.
Probable Causes & Solution:
- Make sure the Access Point which the station associated with
is powered on.
- Start the Site Survey Utility to make sure the operating
radio channel is in good quality. Otherwise, change the Access Point and all the stations
within the BSS to another radio channel.
- Make sure the station is configured with the same security
option with the Access Point, either turn off or turn on with the same security key.
- Make sure the BSS ID is the same as the Access Point for a
roaming disabled station, or the ESS ID is the same as the Access Point for a roaming
enabled station.
