What to do if the AVM Adapter computer does not detect the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick?
If your computer does not detect the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick, it might not be correctly inserted into the USB port, or the chipset drivers of your computer might be outdated. Ensure the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick is firmly inserted. If it's not positioned correctly, pull it out and reinsert it. You may also need to install the latest chipset drivers.
Why does my AVM FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick computer recognize the network but cannot access the Internet?
If your computer recognizes the network and the router, but you cannot access the Internet, this may be due to a wrong WLAN key or the IP address not being assigned automatically by Windows. Therefore, check the WLAN key entry and make sure that the automatic assignment of IP addresses is enabled in your operating system.
What to do if AVM FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick USB Stick is detected but not fully functional in Windows XP?
If the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick is detected automatically in the Windows XP operating system, but the device is not fully functional, the necessary service packs have not been installed. To ensure full operation capability, install the current service packs and updates using the Windows Update function. We recommend at least Service Pack 2 for Windows XP.
What to do if AVM Adapter and WLAN access point cannot exchange data?
If the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick and the WLAN access point cannot exchange any data with each other, the WLAN access point is not connected correctly or not switched on. Check whether the WLAN access point is connected correctly and make sure that the device and the WLAN function are switched on.
