Troubleshooting Networks
Why can't I access the Internet?
 Make sure the Wireless LAN PC Card is properly inserted into the PC Card slot. For more information, see Inserting
PC Cards .
 Check the access point settings. Refer to the instructions supplied with the access point.
 Make sure your computer and the access point are connected to one another.
 Move your computer away from obstructions or closer to any access point you may be using.
 Make sure your computer is properly configured for Internet access.
Why can't I establish a connection between two VAIO computers?
 Your computer may not recognize an i.LINK 1 connection if the i.LINK cable is not plugged securely into the i.LINK
ports. Disconnect the i.LINK cable and securely reconnect it to both computers. If neither computer responds after a
few moments, restart both computers.
 If the computers do not recognize the i.LINK connection after resuming from a power saving mode (Standby or
Hibernate), restart both computers. For more information, see
Connecting VAIO computers .
