Troubleshooting
■ Make sure you are in range of an access point (for an
infrastructure connection) or other wireless notebook
(for
an Ad Hoc connection).
■ When you log on to an 802.11 network via an access point
yet your notebook cannot connect to network resources,
your
notebook may not have been assigned an IP address.
If
the subnet mask for your wireless connection is
255.255.000.000, the network server did not assign an IP
address to your notebook, and you may have to release and
renew your network IP address. If releasing and renewing the
IP address does not fix the problem, the access point may
need to be rebooted.
■ If you want to change the SSID to a different value to connect
to a different access point, or if you want to change from
Infrastructure mode to Ad Hoc mode, you may first have to
release and renew the Internet IP address.
■ See “Local Area Network (LAN) Problems” in this chapter.
If You Have Trouble Connecting to Another
Notebook in the Network Neighborhood or
My Network Places
■ Wait a few minutes, then press F5 to refresh the list of
notebooks on the network.
■ Select Start > Search > Notebooks or People to locate the
notebook.
If You Cannot Connect to a Particular Notebook on
the Network
■ Make sure the notebook is properly connected to the network.
■ Make sure your TCP/IP setup is correct for your network.
Select Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
