No LED’s light up. Answer: Usually it is caused by the power is not connected. Please double check the power adapter if it connected to your AP and the other side is plugged into the power outlet. If it still has no power, please contact your reseller. 5. I can’t access the AP from a wireless client. Answer: Generally to make the wireless client unable to access AP with following possible issues: 1. Settings are different among each wireless station. 2. Out of range. 3. Wrong security key. Resolution:
User’s Guide 45Make sure that mode, SSID, Channel and encryption settings are set the same on each wireless adapter. Make sure that your computer is within range and free from any strong electrical devices that may cause interference. 6. What devices cause interference? Answer: The AP is operating in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz band. Other devices operate in this frequency range that may cause interference include microwave ovens and 2.4 GHz portable phones. PCs or analog cellular phones do not operate at 2.4 GHz and do not cause interference. Proper placement of access points usually eliminates interference problems created by other 2.4 GHz devices.
