Question
:
After Emergency Upgrade, I can’t find my Air3G at 192.168.1.254
Answer: The Air3G will restore to the previous settings after successful Emergency
upgrade. Therefore, the IP address will change to the previous IP address.

Question
:
When I wan to use “Site Survey” tool to connect with a AP that has no
encryption, why does the Air3G report “encryption type mismatch!” and ask
me to configure the wireless security settings?
Answer: When you press “Connect” from site survey, the Air3G will first check if the
current wireless encryption setting is correct. If not, it will ask you to modify
the setting. Therefore, if your current wireless settings has encryption and
the new AP you want to associate does not use encryption, then the Air3G will
report the mismatch. In this case, simple select “Disable” in the encryption
field and press “Apply Change”.

Question
:
When I change my wireless operation mode, why can’t I find my AP anymore?
Answer: By Default, the DHCP server is turned on in 3G Router mode. In other
modes, the DHCP server is turned off. If you get your IP address
automatically, then when you change from 3G Router to AP/Client/WDS
Bridge mode. Your PC will not be able to get IP address from DHCP server
anymore; therefore, you should set the IP address manually.
