Make sure the wireless client is associated and joined with the correct access
point. To check this connection: Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon in
the taskbar> select View Available Wireless Networks. The Connect to
Wireless Network screen will appear. Please make sure you have selected the
correct available network, as shown in the illustrations below.
Troubleshooting (continued)
Check that the IP address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the
same IP address range as the access point and gateway. (Since the
DWL-7100AP has an IP address of 192.168.0.50, wireless adapters
must have an IP address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Each
device must have a unique IP address; no two devices may have the
same IP address. The subnet mask must be the same for all the
computers on the network.) To check the IP address assigned to the
wireless adapter, double-click on the local area connection icon in
the taskbar > select the support tab and the IP address will be
displayed. (Please refer to Checking the IP Address in the Networking
Basics section of this manual.)
If it is necessary to assign a static IP address to the wireless adapter,
please refer to the appropriate section in Networking Basics. If you are
entering a DNS server address you must also enter the default
gateway address. (Remember that if you have a DHCP-capable router,
you will not need to assign a static IP address. See Networking
Basics: Assigning a Static IP Address.)
The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the
Infrastructure mode.
