No Wireless Connectivity
Make sure that:
The access point and wireless clients are allowed to connect through wireless channels as defined for
local regulatory domain.
The wireless client is configured for the correct wireless settings (SSID, security settings).
Check the signal strength, indicated by the wireless client manager. If the signal is low, try repositioning
the THOMSON TG185n or directing the THOMSON TG185n's antenna(s) for optimal performance.
Make sure that the wireless client adapter is enabled (message like "radio on").
Poor Wireless Connectivity or Range
Try the following:
Change the wireless channel of your access point. If you are also using a repeater, do not forget to
change it also.
Make sure both the access point and the wireless clients are allowed to connect through wireless
channels as defined for local regulatory domain.
Check the location of the access point in the building.
Use WPA(2)-PSK as encryption.
