ASUS WiFi-b™ Card

Problem

Action

I cannot connect to another
Station with a wireless LAN
device.

•

Check if the Network Type of the
WiFi-b™ card is set to Ad Hoc
mode.

•

Check if the WiFi-b™ has the
same Service Set Identifier
(SSID)
with that of the other
station.

•

Check if the WiFi-b™ card and the
other station have the same
Encryption. If you enable WEP
encryption, you must set the same
WEP keys for both stations.

•

There is poor signal reception.
Place the WiFi-b™ antenna
nearer to the other station.

I cannot connect to other
computers linked via an Access
Point or Ad Hoc network.

•

Check if the WiFi-b™ card and the
other APs and/or clients have the
same Encryption. If you enable
WEP encryption, you must set the
same WEP keys for the WiFi-b™
card and the other AP/s and/or
clients.

•

Check the TCP/IP settings (IP
address, subnet mask, gateway,
and DNS) of your computer.

•

Enable file and printer sharing in
each client computer to allow file
sharing.

I always have poor link quality
and signal strength

You may achieve better link quality
and stronger signal by:

•

Keeping the WiFi-b™ away from
microwave ovens and large metal
objects to avoid radio interference.

•

Reorienting the WiFi-b™ antenna.

•

Shortening the distance between
the WiFi-b™ card and the AP/
another station.
