Chapter 5 – Troubleshooting

Problem I can’t take my laptop and roam between access
points
Solution The Intel Wireless Gateway II is not specifically designed
to be used in this kind of environment; however, to locate
an access point, your wireless adapter might need to be
reset to find the gateway. To do so,
Go to an MS-DOS or command prompt and type:
ipconfig /renew
If you are using an AnyPoint Wireless II network adapter
and AnyPoint software:
1 Open the AnyPoint Connection Manager and click
the Profile Manager tab.
2 Click Scan.
Your adapter automatically finds the gateway and
displays its Network Name in a dialog box.
3 Select the gateway's Network Name and click
Connect.
4 Verify that you can connect to the Internet by opening
your Web browser and navigating to a familiar Web
site.
If you are using a third-party network adapter, see the
adapter documentation for how to configure the adapter
to connect with an access point.
If all else fails
If none of the previous problems and solutions seem to
match your situation, try the following:
• Turn off the power to your modem, wait at least 5
seconds, then turn it back on.
• Reset the gateway. See Resetting the gateway on
page 73.
