If you have any difficulties connecting to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, check the following top
three issues and see if they apply to your situation.
If you are attempting to create a wireless connection but cannot connect to the Wireless Turbo Access
Point & Router, make sure each wireless card is set to Infrastructure mode. If the wireless cards are set to
802.11g Adhoc mode, you will not be able to connect to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. When
each wireless card is set to Infrastructure mode, it should automatically connect to the Access Point of the
Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. If the wireless cards do not automatically connect, rescan until they
detect the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router and connect.
If you create a wireless connection to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router but are experiencing poor
link quality, check the positioning of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. Long distances, multiple
floors, or steel or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possible, reposition the Wireless Turbo
Access Point & Router to reduce the effect of any of these obstacles.
If you have the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router properly connected and can access the Internet but
are experiencing difficulties connecting with special applications (e.g., ICQ, Battle.net, etc.), you must
assign specific ports in order to bypass the firewall function. For more information about how to configure
this function, refer to the “Special Applications” section within the “Configuring the Wireless Turbo Access
Point & Router” chapter of the User Guide.
