My wireless adapter cannot connect to the router.

Solution:

Be certain that you have each Wireless PC Card, PCI Adapter, or USB Adapter set to Infrastructure mode. Verify that you are using the same SSID, Channel, and Security information as the Wireless MAXg Router. Refer to your Wireless PC Card's, PCI Adapter's, or USB Adapter's documentation to determine how to change these settings.

Solution:

The wireless security settings of any wireless PC cards, PCI adapters, or USB adapters must match the settings for the Wireless MAXg Router.

  1. In the configuration utility for your wireless card or adapter, ensure that you are connecting to the correct Wireless MAXg Router by verifying the MAC address, Network name (SSID), and wireless security settings. The MAC address is located on the label on the bottom of the Wireless MAXg Router.

  2. Ensure that the correct Pass phrase or key and encryption option are being used. If you changed the settings in the configuration of the Wireless MAXg Router, you must also change the settings of every Wireless PC Card, PCI Adapter, or USB Adapter connecting to this network.

Refer to the Tutorial in the router configuration pages for additional information regarding new wireless clients. To access the Tutorial, open a Web browser and type: 192.168.2.1/addclient.asp.

Solution 3:

If you have enabled MAC filtering on the router, you will not be able to connect new any new clients to the network until you add the MAC address of the device to MAC filtering list.
