Network Connection Problems
There may be a network connection problem if the LED on the card
does not light, or if you cannot access any network resources from
the computer. Check the following items before contacting SMC
Technical Support.
Make sure the correct network card driver is installed for your
operating system. If necessary, try uninstalling and reinstalling the
driver. To do this, first shut down your machine and remove your
SMC adapter. Then boot up and open up your Start Menu, go to
Programs, click the "SMC EZ Connect TURBO WLAN Adapter"
program folder and choose "Uninstall". Reboot the machine when
requested to do so. Then insert your Driver CD and run the
Setup.exe utility again. Then shut down the computer, reinsert
your SMC adapter and boot up the machine. The OS should
properly reinstall the adapter during this time.
Make sure the computer and other network devices are receiving
power. If you suspect a power outlet to be faulty, plug another
device into it to verify that it is working.
If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer on
the Ethernet LAN when configured for Infrastructure mode, try
changing the wireless channel on the AP. Make sure the SSID is
the same as that used by the AP for a station with roaming
disabled, or the same as that used by the AP's in the extended
service set (ESS).
The Access Point you are trying to attach to is defective or may
not be configured properly to accept your signal. Check with the
administrator of your wireless network for more information on
connecting to the LAN. Also run the necessary diagnostics on the
AP to make sure the unit is fully operational.
If you cannot access the Internet, be sure to check with the ISP
for further instructions once the drivers for the EZ Connect TURBO
Wireless Card are installed properly.
