If you are unable to connect to the network and receive the error message “Access
point could not be found , restart terminal to try again”, this indicates that the settings
entered did not allow the terminal to associate with an access point or there is no
access point within radio range.

If the settings are know to be correct and access points are functioning normally,
accept the option to restart the terminal and allow the terminal to attempt to
associate again.
Confirm the wireless security settings for your network, re-enter the settings in the
network tab
Verify the signal strength within the area the terminal is being used

the signal

panel and determine if an antenna icon appears in the “Available Networks” or in the
“Preferred Networks” window. If there is a blue ring around the top of the antenna
icon, the connection is established
