FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick 45
Checking the Data of the WLAN Connection
Setting the 2.4-GHz Frequency Band in the WLAN
Access Point
Could not register at the WLAN remote site.
Possible Cause
The settings of the WLAN remote site and the entries in the
“WLAN Remote Site” area of the FRITZ!WLAN control software do
not match.
Remedy
Check whether the correct WLAN access point has been select-
ed from the list of WLAN devices and make sure that the WLAN
key
and the name (SSID) of the WLAN remote site have been en-
tered correctly. Pay special attention to capitalization.
For a WLAN product from the AVM FRITZ!Box family, the default
na
me always begins with “FRITZ!Box”. On AVM FRITZ!Box prod-
ucts, the WLAN key is printed on the underside of the device
a
n
d on the installation CD jewel case.
If you are using a WLAN access point from another manufactur-
er, please see the documentation of this device.
In a direct connection, the preconfigured name of the ad-hoc
network in the FRITZ!WLAN control software is “ad hoc”.
Then connect with the WLAN remote site again.
Could not register at the WLAN remote site.
Possible Cause
The WLAN remote station transmits in the 5-GHz frequency
band (802.11n/a mode).
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick supports only the 2.4-GHz frequency
band, however (see “Frequency Range” from page 37
).
Remedy
Switch the WLAN remote station to 2.4-GHz transmission
(802.11n/g/b mode, channel 1 - 13).
