The WPCC100 does not work properly after
installation.

Make sure that the WPCC100 is correctly installed.
Verify that the WPCC100 is firmly inserted into the
PCMCIA slot inside your computer.

Verify that you are using the correct wireless settings.
You might have incomplete or incorrect wireless settings
for your adapter. To connect successfully, the wireless
adapter on your notebook PC must have the same network
name (SSID), and wireless security (WEP and/or WPA)
information as your router or gateway.

Reset your router or gateway. Turn off or unplug your
router or gateway, wait at least 10 seconds, then turn it
back on again. When the status lights indicate that the
router or gateway is functioning, try accessing the Internet
from your PC connected to your wireless network.

NOTE: (For advanced users) You may need to move a
card currently in slot 1 to another slot in your notebook PC.
Troubleshoot conflicts among your device resources.

Look for conflicts among your device resources. Try
using Windows Troubleshooting to verify that the
WPCC100 is not trying to use computer resources already
being used by another piece of hardware.

My network is slow.

Try decreasing the number of computers or programs that
are simultaneously accessing your network.

Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to verify that
there are no problems with your connection, such as
scheduled maintenance, line issues, or other problems. If
you are still not satisfied with your connection speed, you
might want to inquire about upgrading to a faster connection.
