Cannot connect to a Station (WLAN Adapter)
Follow the procedure below to configure your WLANAdapter.
a. Verify that the “Network Type” is in “Ad Hoc” mode.
b. Verify that the “SSID” of your WLAN Adapter is set to the same “SSID” of
the other station (or another WLANAdapter).
c. Verify that the “channel” of the WLAN Adapter is “Auto” or set to the
same “channel” of the other station (or another WLAN Adapter).
d. Verify that the “Encryption” type is the same as the other station (or another
WLAN Adapter). If “WEP” encryption is enabled, you must set the same
“WEP” Keys on both stations.
Bad link quality or bad signal strength
There are two possible reasons. First is radio interference, keep the
environment around the WLANAdapter away from microwave ovens and large
metal objects. Then try to reorient the WLAN Adapter antenna. Second is the
distance, decrease the distance between your WLAN Adapter and the access
point or station (or another WLANAdapter).
The TCP/IP protocol did not bind to the WLAN PC Adapter.
This will occur when the computer already has six TCP/IP bindings in Windows
98 or ten bindings in Windows Me. These limits are imposed by the Microsoft
operating system.
Solution: If your computer already has the maximum number of TCP/IP
bindings, remove one of the network adapters from the Network configuration
before installing the WLANAdapter driver.
